Few chemical sectors have suffered or prospered from as much change as fluorocarbons. The last 20 years included:
The phase out of CFCs
The rise and fall of HCFCs in the US, Europe and Japan
The rise of HCFC- 22 and HFC-134a production in China
The rise of HFCs and refrigerant blends globally
But change doesn't stop:
In 2010 refrigerant HCFC- 22 will be banned in new equipment in the U.S. In 2011 HFC-134a will be banned for new motor vehicle models in Europe.
The 2008 Fluorocarbons report examines the global fluorocarbon market, and offers a rare glimpse of where it is going.
