ATLANTA — At its booth this year, Arkema took the opportunity to promote R-32 as a transition refrigerant for the air conditioning market. Arkema’s global business director of fluorochemicals, Matthew Ritter, said that while the company does not necessarily believe that R-32 will be the final answer, it is a very good choice for that segment of the market.
“R-410A is obviously still important, but we’re using the AHR Expo to position R-32 as a step in the air conditioning segment,” he said.
