Dichlorodifluoromethane is a type of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) with a wide range of market applications. It is primarily used as a refrigerant in refrigerators and air conditioning systems because of its effective thermal properties. It is also used as an aerosol spray propellant. However, its usage in medical aerosols has been replaced by other, more environmentally friendly alternatives. In the chemical industry, it was employed as a solvent in synthesis processes and as a foam-blowing agent. Despite its utility in various fields, it remains one of the most harmful gases contributing to ozone layer depletion.

The market for Dichlorodifluoromethane is primarily directed by its application as a refrigerant in air conditioning systems, which significantly fuels its demand in the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) industry. Its application in the consumer electronics and home appliances market largely promotes its market growth. Its usage as a solvent and a foam-blowing agent in various chemical syntheses further enhances its demand in the chemical industry. Additionally, the availability of raw materials (carbon tetrachloride, etc.), cost and pricing, adherence to quality standards, supplier relationships, sustainability practices, distribution, and logistics are some of the factors that significantly influence industrial Dichlorodifluoromethane procurement worldwide.

Raw Material for Dichlorodifluoromethane Production

According to the Dichlorodifluoromethane manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Dichlorodifluoromethane production include Carbon Tetrachloride-Hydrogen Fluoride.

Manufacturing Process of Dichlorodifluoromethane

The extensive Dichlorodifluoromethane production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Carbon Tetrachloride: In this method, dichlorodifluoromethane is produced by using carbon tetrachloride and hydrogen fluoride as the starting materials. The process is initiated by the chemical reaction of carbon tetrachloride with hydrogen fluoride gas in the presence of antimony pentafluoride as a catalyst, which leads to the formation of dichlorodifluoromethane as the desired product.

Dichlorodifluoromethane is a colorless, gaseous chemical compound consisting of one carbon, two chlorine, and two fluorine atoms. The molecular formula of the compound is CCl2F2, and its molecular weight is around 120.91 g/mol. It is also known as CFC-12 or R-12. At high concentrations, the gas exhibits a faint, ethereal odor and is non-combustible. The density of the compound is 1.49 g/cm3, and the compound has a melting point of approximately -157.1 °C and a boiling point of around -30 °C. It is soluble in several chemical solvents, including ether, acetic acid, and ethanol, with a solubility in water of 0.009 wt% at 25 °C. Dichlorodifluoromethane is denser than water and, upon heating, can decompose, releasing toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, and phosgene.
