Hi Guys,
Can anyone help with rough pricng on R123 in the states? Also is it readily accessible though different wholesalers?
I realise there is resrictions on HCFC's in the states which includes R123. Just checking out ongoing supply for a potential customer.

Thanks in advance!:)

Yeah, you are right, "*****" is a trade name for CFC and HCFC refrigerants sold by DuPont. Other trade names include Honeywell's "Genetron," Ineos Fluor's "Arcton," and Arkema's "Forane." Various companies sell the same CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs, and other products under different names. The most common ozone-depleting refrigerants are R-22, R-11, R-12, and R-123.Several new alternatives are on the market. The SNAP web site contains the latest list of acceptable substitutes by end-use. Another table lists the compositions of many blends, what they are intended to replace, their ASHRAE designations, and the generic names, if any, used when describing them in the Federal Register. The most common alternative refrigerants are R-404A, R-407C, and R-410A.
