Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

This monograph deals with 6 hydrochlorofluorocarbons: R141b, R142b, R132b, R133a, R123 and R124. They are mainly used as drop-in fluids (R133a), refrigerants (R123) or substitutes for R11 (R123 and R141b), R113 (R123-R141b mixture) or other entirely halogenated chlorofluorocarbons (R124 and R142b). The monograph presents a bibliographic review of data on the environmental impact of these products (effect on the ozone layer), as well as the effects on animals and men. No data are available on the effects on men of R141b, R132b, R133a, R123 and R124.
