RADNOR, Pa. — Arkema will offer a range of lower-GWP refrigerants to the global market, increasing access to next-generation refrigerant solutions.
The expansion of Arkema’s portfolio through a commercial arrangement with Honeywell International Inc. will strengthen global supply chains, address increased demand for HFO blends in the HVACR industry, and ensure continued supply, consistent with the HFC phasedown, a statement from Arkema said.
Arkema will sell HFO blends under its Forane brand. These refrigerants — many of which are already preferred by leading equipment manufacturers — meet HVACR industry regulations and improve energy efficiency for businesses and homeowners, the statement said. These refrigerants include:
• Forane 454B (R-454B), which has a GWP of 466 and exhibits properties comparable to R-410A. This refrigerant has been specified by several OEMs for use in comfort-cooling applications.
• Forane 448A (R-448A) and Forane 449A (R-449A), developed as replacements for R-404A, R-507A, R-22, and R-407. They are particularly well-suited for use in low-to-medium commercial refrigeration applications, including in supermarkets, cold storage rooms, walk-in coolers and freezers, refrigerated display cases, and centralized rack systems, the press release said.
• Forane 452A (R-452A), another alternative to R-404A for transport refrigeration.
• Forane 513A (R-513A), which reduces GWP by over 50% compared to R-134A. It’s suitable for centrifugal chillers, medium-temperature refrigeration, air conditioners, and heat pumps.
