Refrigerant manufacturer Koura recently introduced R468C, a refrigerant that could replace R410A in air conditioning systems.  

At the latest edition of the Purdue conferences, three authors presented R468C, a promising alternative to R410A in air conditioning systems. 
  
This refrigerant, developed by Koura, has been classified as A2L (low flammability) by ASHRAE. Its critical temperature is slightly higher than that of R410A, but the other properties are close. 
 
R468C is a mixture of 42% HFC32, 52% HFO1234yf and 6% HFO1132a and has a GWP of 286. The high proportion of R1234yf could indicate that its price will be somewhat higher than that of the refrigerants it could replace.
