CF3CHFCHF2

Pure HFC, 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane (CF₃CHFCHF₂). ASHRAE A1 non-flammable. GWP 1,370. Normal boiling +43°F — high for an HFC, suitable for high-temperature heat pump and organic Rankine cycle applications. Limited commercial availability; specialty refrigerant only.

R-236ea saturation pressure is 2.0 in. Hg vacuum at 40°F, 11.3 PSIG at 70°F, and 31.0 PSIG at 100°F. These are the gauge readings on a static, fully-saturated system; a running system's high side sits well above them. The full table below runs from −22°F to 150°F in 1°F steps.

What is R-236ea?

R-236ea is the "ea" isomer of 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane — a six-fluorine HFC with the specific fluorination pattern CF₃-CHF-CHF₂. The closely-related isomer R-236fa (1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane, CF₃-CH₂-CF₃) has the same chemical formula but different fluorine arrangement, leading to very different properties — most notably R-236fa has GWP 9,810 while R-236ea has GWP 1,370. The geometric arrangement matters enormously for atmospheric behavior.

Commercial use of R-236ea is concentrated in specialty applications: organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems for waste-heat recovery, high-temperature heat pump research, and some specialty refrigeration where the relatively high boiling point (+43°F) and chemical stability are useful. Production volumes are modest.

Where R-236ea is used

  • Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) working fluid for waste-heat recovery applications
  • High-temperature heat pump research and pre-commercial systems
  • Specialty refrigeration in industrial process applications
  • Not used in conventional HVAC or commercial refrigeration

Regulatory & phase-down status

R-236ea's GWP of 1,370 places it within AIM Act phase-down scope for HFCs. Production volumes are small, so the practical impact of AIM Act schedules is limited — R-236ea is too specialty-niche for major commercial restriction at current production levels.

For applications where R-236ea is currently used, R-1336mzz(Z) (HFO, GWP 2) is the modern low-GWP substitute for ORC and high-temperature heat pumps. The transition is gradual as new equipment specifies R-1336mzz(Z) and existing R-236ea equipment ages out.

Service notes

POE oil is the standard lubricant. Mineral oil is not used. A1 safety classification simplifies service. R-236ea has the relatively high boiling point (+43°F) — the refrigerant may be liquid at indoor ambient temperatures, which affects handling (e.g., transferring from cylinders may require modest heating to develop vapor pressure for charging).

EPA Section 608 covers R-236ea. Service work on R-236ea systems is rare.

Servicing. 40 CFR 84.54 restricts new manufacture/import, later sale/distribution, and installation. "Installation" is defined in 84.54(e); repairing or servicing existing R-236ea equipment is not an installation unless it meets 84.54(e), so existing systems can keep being serviced. From January 1, 2029, servicing or repairing R-236ea equipment in supermarket systems, refrigerated transport or automatic commercial ice makers must be done with reclaimed refrigerant[2].

Frequently asked

›What's the difference between R-236ea and R-236fa?

Same chemical formula (C₃H₂F₆) but different isomer arrangements of the six fluorines around the three-carbon backbone. R-236ea is 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane (CF₃CHFCHF₂); R-236fa is 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane (CF₃CH₂CF₃). The "ea" isomer has fluorines distributed across all three carbons; the "fa" isomer has fluorines concentrated on the terminal carbons with a -CH₂- group in the middle. This structural difference produces very different atmospheric lifetimes (R-236ea ~11 years vs R-236fa ~242 years) and correspondingly different GWPs (R-236ea 1,370 vs R-236fa 9,810). The -CH₂- group in R-236fa is unreactive in atmospheric chemistry — fluorines on adjacent carbons make the C-H bonds inert to OH-radical attack.

›What's an organic Rankine cycle?

A power-generation thermodynamic cycle using an organic working fluid (refrigerant-class molecule) instead of water. Waste heat at moderate temperature (100-300°C) vaporizes the working fluid, the vapor expands through a turbine to generate electrical power, condenses to liquid, and pumps back to the boiler to repeat. ORC enables electricity generation from heat sources too cool for steam (industrial waste heat, geothermal, biomass, solar thermal). Working-fluid selection depends on heat-source temperature; R-236ea fits the medium-temperature range where some other ORC fluids (R-245fa, R-1234ze(Z)) compete.

›What is the GWP of R-236ea?

1,370. Moderate by HFC standards — comparable to R-134a's 1,430 and below R-125's 3,500. The 11-year atmospheric lifetime is short for an HFC, contributing to the moderate GWP.

›Is R-236ea readily available?

Commercial availability is limited. Procurement is generally through specialty chemical suppliers rather than HVAC refrigerant distributors.

›Can R-236ea be substituted with R-1336mzz(Z)?

In some ORC and heat-pump applications, yes. R-1336mzz(Z) has higher boiling point (+92°F vs R-236ea's +43°F) and lower vapor pressure, so the substitution requires equipment evaluation — at the same condensing temperature R-1336mzz(Z) will produce different pressures. New ORC and high-temperature heat pump installations specify R-1336mzz(Z) for its very-low GWP (2 vs R-236ea's 1,370).
