A general term used to identify, any of a group of partially or completely halogenated simple hydrocarbons containing fluorine, chlorine or bromine, which are used as refrigerants.
a class of coolants made from carbon, chlorine, and fluorine (the coolant used in the shuttle experiment was C-113, which boils at 47.6 degrees Celsius)
The gas added to a refrigerator or air conditioner, which produces cold.
A chemical used in commercial and residential and automotive air conditioning systems. Freon is also known to destroy the earth's ozone layer and is being phased out of use by the EPA. Many companies are currently embarking on programs to replace their freon-based A/C systems with non-freon systems.
A registered trade mark belonging to Dupont, the manufacturer of refrigerants.
The trade name Freon(tm) is a registered trademark belonging to E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company (DuPont). Production of Freon(tm) will cease in 2015 per the Montreal Protocol.
Trade name for a series of man made chemicals or refrigerants used in refrigeration systems. Each refrigerant is designed to change phase at specific temperatures and pressures that will produce the desired cooling effect required for a specific job. The refrigerant absorbs energy as it evaporates and releases energy during condensation.
The trade name for refrigerants.
Freon is a stable, harmless element that is a gas at room temperature. It is one of the most important parts in traditional refrigeration or air-conditioning systems. It is useful because its gaseous state at room temperature allows it to act as a coolant.
a trade name for a family of chlorofluorocarbon refrigerants manufactured by DuPont and other companies
Brand name refrigerant manufactured by Dupont.
Any of a series of gaseous or low boiling, inert, nonflammable derivatives of methane or ethane used as refrigerants and solvents, and as propellants in aerosol products.
Brand name of a common aerosol propellant and refrigerant
A registered trademark for a cholorflourocarbon (CFC) gas that is highly stable and that has been historically used as a refrigerant.
A registered trademark of the DuPont Corporation for their family of CFC refrigerants, which includes R-12.
Registered trade name for the chlorofluorocarbons ( CFCs).
A chemical used for cooling. Each molecule can destroy over 100,000 molecules of the earth's protective ozone coating, leading to increased risk of sunburn, cataracts, and skin cancer for the entire population of the planet, both human and animal. Also: CFC.
Trade name of any of the fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds that are used for cleaning or refrigerants.
