Ozone Depletion

Ability to contribute to chemical reactions that destroy ozone in the earth’s upper atmosphere.

Not currently included in GreenScreen.

GHS Definition (6th edition):

[HAZARDOUS TO THE OZONE LAYER] Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP) is an integrative quantity, distinct for each halocarbon source species, that represents the extent of ozone depletion in the stratosphere expected from the halocarbon on a mass-for- mass basis relative to CFC-11. The formal definition of ODP is the ratio of integrated perturbations to total ozone, for a differential mass emission of a particular compound relative to an equal emission of CFC-11.
