Isobutane is called R600A because it is a refrigerant with the molecular formula C4H10 or HC(CH3)3. The R stands for refrigerant, and the 600 indicates the molecular weight of the compound divided by 100. The A means that it is an isomer of butane, which has the same chemical composition but a different structure. ¹²

Isobutane is used as a refrigerant in home and commercial appliances, such as refrigerators, freezers, vending machines, and plug-ins. It is also used as a feedstock in the petrochemical industry, for example in the synthesis of isooctane. ¹²⁴

Isobutane is a natural refrigerant that has negligible ozone depletion potential and very low global warming potential. It is also non-toxic and has good thermodynamic properties. However, it is highly flammable and requires special safety precautions when handling and storing. ²³⁴.

What is a substitute for R600a?

R134a

R600a was replaced with R134a in the closed-loop two-phase thermosyphon. R600a was considered as a climate-friendly in the direction of the EU F-Gas Regulation. Different filling ratios of R600a were investigated. The performance of mini TER was assessed in terms of energy and exergy analysis.

R600a

A flammable refrigerant gas with very low GWP for R134a (HFC) replacement in Refrigerator and Refrigeration systems, substitution of this refrigerant for motor vehicle air conditioning systems not originally designed for R600a is widely prohibited or discouraged.
