Widening Horizons: From Refrigerants to Agrochemicals, Rubber, and Propellants
Chloromethane’s functional reach extends beyond silicones and healthcare. Historically, it was used as a refrigerant (known as R-40), though its flammability curtailed this role in favor of safer alternatives. It remains relevant in specialized cooling applications and as a raw material in restricted refrigerant chemistries.
The compound also serves as a solvent and extractant of oils, resins, and rubber processing agents. It aids in the making of butyl rubber and facilitates petroleum refining processes.
Moreover, chloromethane functions as a propellant and blowing agent—particularly in foam manufacture—where its volatility and expansion characteristics support effective cellular structure formation.
