Which phenomenon accelerates equipment corrosion when refrigerant decomposes?

A)Formation of hydrofluoric acid
B)Phase separation of additives
C)Polymerization within the lubricant
D)Excessive oil viscosity increase

💡 Explanation

Hydrofluoric acid significantly accelerates corrosion because refrigerant breakdown releases fluoride ions leading to its formation via hydrolysis; therefore, equipment degrades because of acid, rather than additive separation which causes reduced efficiency.
