Abstract

The standard gas mixture (Ar/isoC₄H₁₀/CF₃Br) used for RPCs contains several percent of CF₃Br(Haron1301) as quenching agent. CF₃Br is known to destroy the atmospheric ozone layer. For this reason its use is discouraged, and prohibited by law in the near future. C₂F₆(FC116) and C₂H₂F₄(HFC134A) seem to be an ideal candidate from an environment point of view since its ozone depletion potential is very low. We present the results of a test performance on RPC (glass) operating with non-ozone depletion freon gas and butane-silver.
