Reactions of o(21d2) with chlorofluoromethanes and ccl4

ABSTRACT UPPER atmosphere reactions involving chlorofluoromethanes are of considerable current interest1–6. It has been suggested that the diffusion of chlorofluoromethanes, from the

troposphere into the stratosphere, where photochemical and reaction processes produce free chlorine atoms, could lead eventually to a depletion of ozone in the upper atmosphere1,2, by way of

the ClOx cycle The work presented here was directed towards obtaining a more detailed understanding of the primary and secondary processes which take place in the photochemically initiated

reaction between O3 and the chlorofluoromethanes. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS
