- A halocarbon in which some hydrogen atoms have been replaced by fluorine; used in refrigerators and aerosols
- Fluorocarbons, sometimes referred to as perfluorocarbons or PFCs, are, strictly speaking, organofluorine compounds with the formula CxFy, i.e. they contain only carbon and fluorine, though the terminology is not strictly followed. Compounds with the prefix perfluoro- are hydrocarbons, including those with heteroatoms, wherein all C-H bonds have been replaced by C-F bonds...
- (Fluorocarbons) Flurocarbons are commonly used as a propellant in hairsprays, they cause irritation of the respiratory tract.
- Fluorocarbons and often have a particularly harmful type that chemists call PFOA. Fluorocarbon is an umbrella term for a number of perfluorinated substances that, because of their characteristics, are frequently used for outdoor products and in other contexts. ...
- Any of a class of compounds produced by substituting fluorine for hydrogen in a hydro-carbon and characterized by great chemical stability. Fluorocarbons have numerous industrial applications, such as dichlorodifluoromethane or R-12
- A non-flammable, heat-stable hydrocarbon liquid or gas. Traditionally used as propellants, notably in spray cans, fluorocarbons are classified as ozone-depleting substances. ...
- A type on monofilament (clear) fishing line or leader material.
- A material composed of a bond between fluorine and carbon atoms. Fishing line manufactured of this material can take a lot of damage without losing strength, as to monofilament, which is compromised by even the smallest nick. In addition, it has a faster sink rate for it's diameter than mono. ...
- Carbon backbone, organic compound having fluorine atoms in its chemical structure. Presence of the fluorine provides increased chemical and high temperature resistance.
