A review on polymer heat exchangers for HVAC&R applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the material properties of polymers are examined, as well as the current state of the art of polymer matrix composites, and it is shown that these materials do hold promise for use in the construction of heat exchangers in HVAC&R applications, but that a considerable amount of research is still required into material properties and life-time behavior.
