We review the available data concerning the atmospheric chemistry and environmental impact of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and hydrofluoroethers (HFEs). HFCs and HFEs have no impact on stratospheric ozone. The direct global warming potentials of HFCs and HFEs are approximately an order of magnitude less than the CFCs they replace. At the concentrations expected from their atmospheric degradation, none of the oxidation products of HFCs or HFEs, are noxious or toxic.
