Fluorchem HCFCs

Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-22 - (R-22)

Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-22 is a nonflammable, low ODP propellant convenient for use in many diverse applications as a propellant and refrigerant. Prior to the introduction of Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), HCFC-22 was the dominant refrigerant and propellant gas used worldwide.

Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-22 (HCFC-22) is a second generation aerosol propellant designed to provide an alternative to highly ozone depleting chlorofluorocarbons, like R-12 (dichlorodifluoromethane). HCFCs were developed in the 1990s to replace CFCs to help reduce ozone depletion. Modern innovations and advancements have allowed for a phase out of HCFCs through the Montreal protocol. Fluorchem ended HCFC-22 production in 2020.

Fluorchem is no longer offering Hydrochlorofluorocarbon-22 in compliance with the Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer.
