No it's not. R22 is designed for use in home HVAC systems where as R12 is intended for automotive systems. Using R22 in an automobile will cause swelling of seals and hoses, possible compressor failure due to different running pressures.

Why wont R-22 work in a R-12 ac system?

The simple answer is that an R12 system wasn't designed for R22. There are different pressures reached, there are different compressor oils used, and R22 may not even be compatible with a compressor designed for R12. Changing an R12 system to R22 could be done, but it would require extensive conversion, and would still be undesirable - R22 is being phased out, largely because it's a carcinogen and because of the harsh environmental effects.

No, R22 is for refrigerators and home AC. It runs at a different pressure and you can't use one for the other.


What can r12 and r22 can decompose to form?

R12 (dichlorodifluoromethane) can decompose into phosgene and HF (hydrogen fluoride). R22 (chlorodifluoromethane) can decompose into phosgene and HF as well. Both reactions can occur under high temperature or in the presence of a catalyst.
