Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are fully or partly halogenated hydrocarbons that contain carbon (C), hydrogen (H), chlorine (Cl), and fluorine (F), produced as volatile derivatives of methane, ethane, and propane. The most common example is dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12). R-12 is also commonly called Freon and ...

Abundances are given as pollution free monthly mean mole fractions in parts-per-trillion. Atmospheric concentration of CFC-113 since year 1992. CFC-113 is a very unreactive chlorofluorocarbon. It remains in the atmosphere about 90 years, [9] sufficiently long that it will cycle out of the troposphere and into the stratosphere.
1,2-Dichlorotetrafluoroethane, or R-114, also known as cryofluorane , is a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) with the molecular formula ClF 2 CCF 2 Cl. Its primary use has been as a refrigerant. It is a non-flammable gas with a sweetish, chloroform-like odor with the critical point occurring at 145.6 °C and 3.26 MPa. When pressurized or cooled, it is a ...
1-Chloro-1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethane, C 2 H Cl F 4, is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon used as a component in refrigerants offered as replacements for chlorofluorocarbons. HCFC-124 is also used in gaseous fire suppression systems as a replacement for bromochlorocarbons .
1-Chloro-1,1-difluoroethane (HCFC-142b) is a haloalkane with the chemical formula C H 3 C Cl F 2.It belongs to the hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) family of man-made compounds that contribute significantly to both ozone depletion and global warming when released into the environment.
Chlorotrifluoromethane, R-13, CFC-13, or Freon 13, is a non-flammable, non-corrosive, nontoxic chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) and also a mixed halomethane. It is a man-made substance used primarily as a refrigerant. When released into the environment, CFC-13 has a high ozone depletion potential, and long atmospheric lifetime. [2]
Chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE) is a chlorofluorocarbon with chemical formula CFCl=CF 2.It is commonly used as a refrigerant in cryogenic applications. CTFE has a carbon-carbon double bond and so can be polymerized to form polychlorotrifluoroethylene or copolymerized to produce the plastic ECTFE.
