Fluorinated gases are synthetic gases that contain fluorine and are used in various industrial applications. They are often found in products like refrigerants, aerosols, and insulating foams. While they are effective for their intended purposes, these gases can trap heat in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming. These gases include several types, such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). Although they are present in smaller quantities compared to other greenhouse gases, their global warming potential is significantly higher, making their management important for environmental protection efforts.
