Description
The applications of Refrigerant R22 are being phased out in developed countries due to the compound’s ozone depletion potential (ODP) and high global warming potential (GWP), although global use of R-22 continues to increase because of high demand in developing countries. R-22 is a versatile intermediate in industrial organofluoride chemistry, e.g. as a precursor to tetrafluoroethylene. R-22 cylinders are colored light green.
