In the quest for sustainable solutions, the refrigeration industry has made significant strides toward reducing environmental impact. R1234yf, a hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) refrigerant, has emerged as a game-changer, particularly in automotive air conditioning systems. With a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of less than 1, R1234yf is over 99% lower than its predecessor, R134a (GWP of 1430), making it a cornerstone of eco-friendly refrigeration.

Refrigerant R417Ais a widely adopted solution for retrofitting R22-based A/C and refrigeration systems. As global regulations phase out ozone-depleting R22, R417A offers an environmentally friendlier alternative with zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). At FOTECH, we provide high-quality R417A to support sustainable cooling for commercial and residential applications. This blog examines the environmental benefits and limitations of R417A, showcasing how FOTECH delivers eco-conscious solutions.

PVDF is a critical material in lithium-ion battery manufacturing, serving as a binder for cathode and anode electrodes. Its unique properties ensure structural integrity and electrochemical performance, making it essential for applications in electric vehicles (EVs), renewable energy storage, and portable electronics.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a high-performance thermoplastic fluoropolymer widely used in extrusion molding due to its chemical resistance, thermal stability, and excellent mechanical strength. Whether you’re manufacturing industrial tubing or high-purity films, PVDF delivers reliable performance.
