1,1,1,2,2-Pentafluoroethane, also called simply pentafluoroethane, HFC-125, or R-125, is a refrigerant that has zero ozone depletion potential. It has the formula CF3CHF2.
Pentafluoroethane in an azeotropic mixture with difluoromethane is known as R-410A, a common replacement for various chlorofluorocarbons (aka Freon) in new refrigerant systems.
Pentafluoroethane is also used as a fire suppression agent in fire suppression systems.
