Spotlight on Chemours Opteon™ XL41
The 2023 AHR Expo Innovation Awards winner in the Cooling category, Chemours Opteon™ XL41 (R-454B) refrigerant is an R-410A replacement, offering zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and an approximate 78% reduction in global warming potential (GWP).
One of the latest next-generation solutions in the Chemours Opteon™ portfolio, Opteon™ XL41 offers the optimal balance of performance, sustainability, cost, and safety in new air conditioning and heat pump applications. It is classified as a low-flammability A2L refrigerant.
zero ODP and minimal GWP
Learn and talk with an expert to help map out the transition plan ideal for a business’s compliance and success
Driven by the expectation that new equipment charged with Opteon™ XL41 will soon be rolling off assembly lines, Chemours first started taking orders in December 2022. With its zero ODP and minimal GWP, Opteon™ XL41 has already earned the attention of major OEMs, including Carrier, Johnson Controls, and Rheem, which have announced alignment with Chemours for the utilization of this product.
Expo participants are invited to stop by the booth to learn more about Opteon™ XL41 and talk with an expert to help map out the transition plan ideal for their business’s compliance and success.
