HFO are mildly flammable. R1234yf, 1234ze are graded as mildly flammable. Their usage in Mobile Air Conditioning [MAC] system could be a potential system. Manufacturing of most HFO molecules is costly as the synthesis of molecules involves more than single process (Calm, Didion, and Didion 1997). The products of degradation of HFO depend on the identity of the HFO (Fleet et al. 2017). In case of fire, HFO-1234yf will decompose into hydrogen fluoride (HF) and carbonyl fluoride (COF2) which are extremely toxic. Also, in case of leakage in the atmosphere, HFOs breakdown into trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), which has a potential to accumulate and adversely affect ecosystems by increasing their acidity (Hanson et al. 2002). To conclude the effect of TFA, several knowledge gaps need to be addressed. The cycle of TFA in the atmosphere and hydrosphere is not fully understood. There is a lack of information on the potential source of TFA and the amount of TFA usage in global (Table 6).
