EDIT: Searching for it as well since I'm too curious to let this one go. Haven't found the definition for the nomenclature R134a yet.

I think it's just a naming convention. Never heard of any of the numbers/letters actually having specific meaning.

According to a BMW tech friend of mine, R134a is the "part" number for the type of refrigerant that Dupont makes. It doesn't mean anything more than that.
