Estimation of the atmospheric hydroxyl radical oxidative capacity using multiple hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsThe hydroxyl radical (OH) largely determines the atmosphere's oxidative capacity and, thus, the lifetimes of numerous trace gases, including methane (CH4).

The Social Costs of Hydrofluorocarbons and the Large Climate Benefits from their Expedited Phasedown. [PDF]
Nat Clim ChangHydrofluorocarbons are a potent greenhouse gas, yet there remains a lack of quantitative estimates of their social and economic costs. The present study addresses this gap by directly calculating the social cost of hydrofluorocarbons (SC-HFCs) using ...

The assessment of hydrofluorocarbons as novel media for supercritical processing
, 1999 The solvent properties of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (HFC 134a), difluoromethane (HFC 32) and pentafluoroethane (HFC 125) are measured in both the liquid and supercritical phases. The relative permittivity, , of these fluids is presented as a function of

Strengthening the global regulation of hydrofluorocarbons under the Montreal Protocol
, 2023 The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was developed to address the concern of stratospheric ozone depletion. It has been highly effective in addressing its primary concern and it is widely considered to be one of the most ...

Thermodynamic Analysis of Working Fluids for a New “Heat from Cold” Cycle
Entropy, 2020 Adsorptive Heat Transformation systems are at the interface between thermal and chemical engineering. Their study and development need a thorough thermodynamic analysis aimed at the smart choice of adsorbent-adsorptive pair and its fitting with a ...

Climate Metrics for C1–C4 Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) [PDF]
, 2020 This article looks at hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) which are potent greenhouse gases that are potential substitutes for ozone depleting substances. The Kigali amendment lists 17 HFCs that are currently in commercial use to be regulated under the Montreal ...
