R134a

R134a is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant gas used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. 

R134a is a refrigerant gas that is commonly used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. It is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) that was introduced as a replacement for the older refrigerants, such as R12 and R22, which were found to contribute to ozone depletion. R134a does not contain any chlorine, which makes it a more environmentally friendly alternative. It is a colorless, odorless gas that is non-toxic and non-flammable. R134a has a low boiling point, which allows it to absorb heat from the surrounding environment and release it when it is compressed. It is a popular refrigerant due to its efficient performance and safety.
