AGC Develops New Composition of AMOLEA 1123

AGC has successfully developed a new composition of AMOLEA 1123 (HFO-1123) based refrigerant, a low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant that is expected to be the next-generation standard for air conditioners, in cooperation with the University of Tokyo. With this, AGC is on track to resolve the safety issue that had been one of the challenges for the practical application of AMOLEA 1123, and the development of the world’s first refrigerant with a GWP below 10 for air conditioners has entered to the final stage.
