Application:

1) HFC-23 is used as refrigerant, sometimes as a replacement for CFC-13, 2) Used in semiconductor industry in plasma etching of silicon oxide and silicon nitride, 3) Used as a total flooding fire extingushing agent

Used in very low temperature refrigeration systems, typically on the low stage of a multi-stage system. Has properties similar to R-13 and can be used to replace R-13 in an existing system. R-23 has higher discharge temperatures than R-13, however, and equipment which is not designed to take this into account may suffer related failures. Polyester (POE) lubricants should be used, and it may still be necessary to charge hydrocarbon oil additives to ensure proper oil return.
