Short summary

Chlorofluorocarbons, CFCs, are man-made compounds emitted into the atmosphere. Recently, several CFC compounds (CCl₂FCCl₂F (CFC-112), CCl₃CClF₂ (CFC-112a), CCl₃CF₃ (CFC-113a)) were observed in the atmosphere for the first time while their impact on stratospheric ozone and climate is presently not well characterized. In this study, the UV absorption spectra of these CFCs and CCl₂FCF₃ (CFC-114a) were measured, and an atmospheric model was used to evaluate their impacts on ozone and climate.

UV and infrared absorption spectra, atmospheric lifetimes, and ozone depletion and global warming potentials for CCl2FCCl2F (CFC-112), CCl3CClF2 (CFC-112a), CCl3CF3 (CFC-113a), and CCl2FCF3 (CFC-114a)
