In the stratosphere,\nCFCs are photolyzed (by incoming solar UV) to form carbon dioxide, CO2,\nhydrogen fluoride, HF, and ultimately (after multiple UV absorption\nevents) chlorine radicals. These chlorine species are crucial in the\ndestruction of the ozone layer over Antarctica and probably elsewhere (see\nchlorine).
