R410A
Le R410A est un fluide frigorifique remplaçant le R22 selon le Protocole de Montréal pour des applications de froid positif (au-dessus de ) comme la climatisation ou les sécheurs d'air comprimé. Il est composé à 50 % de R32 (difluorométhane) et à 50 % de R125 (pentafluoroéthane). C'est un gaz à effet de serre puissant (PRG = ). Il ne contribue pas à la destruction de la couche d'ozone stratosphérique. Il est aussi utilisé dans les domaines du CVC pour ses propriétés frigorifiques.
Blowing agent
A blowing agent is a substance which is capable of producing a cellular structure via a foaming process in a variety of materials that undergo hardening or phase transition, such as polymers, plastics, and metals. They are typically applied when the blown material is in a liquid stage. The cellular structure in a matrix reduces density, increasing thermal and acoustic insulation, while increasing relative stiffness of the original polymer.
Zéotrope
A zeotropic mixture, or non-azeotropic mixture, is a mixture with liquid components that have different boiling points. For example, nitrogen, methane, ethane, propane, and isobutane constitute a zeotropic mixture. Individual substances within the mixture do not evaporate or condense at the same temperature as one substance. In other words, the mixture has a temperature glide, as the phase change occurs in a temperature range of about four to seven degrees Celsius, rather than at a constant temperature.
