Machine Learning-Enabled Development of Accurate Force Fields for Refrigerants.

Hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants with zero ozone-depleting potential have replaced chlorofluorocarbons and are now ubiquitous. However, some HFCs have high global warming potential, which has led to calls by governments to phase out these HFCs. Technologies to recycle and repurpose these HFCs need to be developed.
