👉 The term "fluorocarbon" refers to a class of gases that are commonly used in refrigeration and chemical processes. These gases were first synthesized by the German physicist Fritz Strassmann in 1928, and they have been widely used since then due to their low cost, high thermal stability, and ability to withstand high pressures. Fused silica (SiO2) is a typical material used as a filler in these refrigerants. The process of making fluorocarbons
