HCFC 123 is the raw base material use to produce a halogeanated, safe/effective and environment friendly fire extinguishing chemical agent called "halotron I". It was introduce in early 1990's to replace the "banned" fire extinguishing agents like, Halon 1211 and BCF's, which were found to have a severe ozone depleting potentials. In contrast, hcfc 123 base fire extinguishing agents has a near zero ozone depletion potentials.

What is the difference between dry chemical and hcfc 123 fire extinguisher?

Dry chemical fire extinguishers use a powder substance, such as sodium bicarbonate or monoammonium phosphate, to smother the fire and interrupt the chemical reaction. HCFC 123 fire extinguishers contain a clean agent called HFC-123, which is a halocarbon compound that extinguishes fires by removing heat and interrupting the chemical reaction. The main difference is in the extinguishing agent used, with dry chemical extinguishers being more versatile but leaving residue, while HCFC 123 extinguishers are cleaner and more suitable for sensitive equipment.

Which gas is used now a days instead of CFC?

LPG - Liquid propane gas or other Hydrocarbon derivatives... Soft CFC's, they added hydrogen to the CFC's previously used that were called hard CFC's. By doing this it won't allow the CFC's to travel up to the stratosphere, where it breaks down the ozone. With the added hydrogen will stop it in the troposphere and combine to form compounds such as CO2 + HCl (or HF), therefore not harmful to the ozone. Examples CH2Cl (HCFC-22) or CHCl2-CF2 (HCFC-123)
