R-22 is the common name for hydro-chlorofluorocarbon (HCFC). R-22 has been used as a refrigerant by HVAC manufacturers for over 40 years, but studies in the past decade have shown that HCFCs contain chlorine, an ozone-depleting agent. For this reason, the United States Clean Air Act has set a target date for January 1, 2010, on which HVAC manufacturers must cease the production of products that use R-22.

This is the reason that the rocks are sold in relatively large sizes. Exposure will work from the outside inward--if you have a pebble with a crusty pale yellow exterior, you can break it open and usually find a potent, yellow core that will still make a usable solution.
