Ideal Refrigerant

is a theoretical concept for a substance used in refrigeration that has optimal thermodynamic and physical properties, such as being non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and highly efficient in heat absorption and release.

Non-Combustible

Materials or substances that are incapable of igniting and burning, used in various safety applications to prevent fire.

Boil Temperatures

The temperature at which a liquid turns into vapor, which varies depending on the atmospheric pressure and the liquid's properties.
