Over the past few years, more attention have been paid to the new low GWP refrigerant R1234ze(E), as a kind of ideal alternative of R134a. But, thermodynamic property and transfer characteristic are not good enough. To achieve better thermodynamic performance, mixtures of R1234ze(E)/R32 was carried out. The recent development on thermodynamic, transfer characteristic and drop-in experiments of R1234ze(E) and R1234ze(E)/R32 mixtures are introduced and compared with some common used refrigerants in the present paper. It is shown that R1234ze(E) and R32 mixtures is expected to be the new low GWP value refrigerants in the future.
