The chemical compound used in aerosols that are thought to be harmful to the Ozone are known as Chlorofluorocarbon or "CFCs" for short.
The chemical compound used in aerosols that are thought to be harmful to the Ozone are known as Chlorofluorocarbon or "CFCs" for short.
The term for gases produced by aerosols and manufacturing that destroy the Earth's ozone layer is "ozone-depleting substances." Examples include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and halons. These substances break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to the thinning of the ozone layer.
Aerosols can impact the ozone layer by containing chlorine or bromine compounds that catalyze ozone depletion. When these aerosols reach the stratosphere, the compounds can break down ozone molecules. However, the impact of aerosols on the ozone layer is generally much smaller than other factors like chlorofluorocarbons.
Aerosols can impact the ozone layer indirectly by altering atmospheric processes. The Montreal Protocol is an international treaty that aims to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other harmful chemicals. This agreement has led to a significant reduction in these substances and has contributed to the recovery of the ozone layer.
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) "ozone depleting substances" are more generic, since other chlorine- and bromine-containing molecules, which are produced by Man, have been found "up there" too. Note that CFCs are not "produced by aerosols", but were intentionally manufactured for the purposes of refrigerant and propellant. Not too many countries are still making / using CFCs.

CFc's is the name. They have a major part in destroying ozone.

Yes. People developed chemicals such as CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) for use in refrigerators and as a propellant gas in aerosols. These CFCs rose high into the atmosphere and caused damage to the ozone layer. the use of CFCs has since been banned and the ozone layer is slowly recovering. Hopefully.
The propellant is usually Butane, which took over from ChloroFlourocarbons, to save the ozone layer.
Aerosols are harming the ozone. They contain the synthetic CFC's.
Yes they do. Aerosols react with ozone to harm it.
Aerosols have affected the ozone layer. They have done this as they contain CFC's.
