CFC is also called chloro fluorocarbon.

An example of a refrigerant CFC is dichlorodifluoromethane, CF2Cl2 (also known as CFC-12), which boils at -30°C. Another once-common CFC is trichlorofluoromethane, CFCl3 (CFC-11), which boils at 24°C and was once the propellant in around half of all the aerosol cans used in the world.

CFC is also one of those gases involved in the greenhouse effect. It is particularly harmful because of its destructive reactions with ozone particles, which protects the earth from UV radiations. Few specialized products are the main source of CFCs.
