CH2F2 Difluoromethane Gas

Difluoromethane, or CH2F2, is a versatile gas with many industrial applications. It is commonly used as a refrigerant in cooling systems, due to its low boiling point and non-toxic properties. It is also used as a blowing agent in the production of foam insulation and as a plasma etching agent in the electronics industry. However, CH2F2 is a potent greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential, which means it can contribute significantly to climate change if released into the atmosphere. As such, efforts are being made to reduce its use and find alternative, more environmentally-friendly substances for these applications.
