Description

Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-224 (HCFC-224) is a specialized fluorocarbon compound used as a refrigerant, blowing agent, and chemical intermediate. This product is valued for its controlled thermodynamic properties and its role as a transitional substance in applications moving away from ozone-depleting CFCs. It serves critical needs in the refrigeration, air conditioning, foam insulation, and specialty chemical synthesis industries, where precise performance and regulatory compliance are paramount.

Application

• Refrigerant: Used as a component in specialized refrigeration and air-conditioning systems.
• Foam Blowing Agent: Employed in the production of insulating foams for construction and appliances.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a precursor in the synthesis of other fluorinated compounds and pharmaceuticals.
• Fire Suppression: Can be formulated into certain types of fire extinguishing agents.
• Solvent & Cleaning Agent: Used in precision cleaning applications for electronics and metal parts.
• Propellant: Utilized in specialized aerosol applications requiring specific vapor pressure characteristics.
• Laboratory Reagent: Acts as a reagent in research and development for fluorination reactions.

Quality Control

Our HCFC-224 is manufactured under stringent process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through advanced analytical techniques including gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong bases and reactive metals. The container should be kept upright and sealed to prevent moisture ingress and volatilization.
