Bromodifluoromethane is a chemical compound from the group of halogenated hydrocarbons .

Extraction and presentation

Bromodifluoromethane can be obtained by reacting dibromodifluoromethane with hydrogen at 400 to 600 ° C.

properties

Bromodifluoromethane is a gas that is soluble in water. The decomposition time in the atmosphere is assumed to be seven years.

use

Bromodifluoromethane was used as a coolant and fire extinguishing agent. It was developed as a replacement for Halon 1301 and Halon 1211 and approved in the USA in 1990, but banned again after 2000 due to its ozone depletion potential .
