Wikipedia	License
Trichlorofluoromethane, also called freon-11, CFC-11, or R-11, is a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). It is a colorless, faintly ethereal, and sweetish-smelling liquid that boils around room temperature. CFC-11 is a Class 1 ozone-depleting substance which damages Earth's protective stratospheric ozone layer. R-11 is not flammable at ambient temperature and pressure but it can become very combustible if heated and ignited by a strong ignition source.

Roles Classification
Chemical Role(s):	environmental contaminant Any minor or unwanted substance introduced into the environment that can have undesired effects. (via chlorofluorocarbon ) NMR chemical shift reference compound Any compound that produces a peak used as reference frequency in the delta chemical shift scale. NMR solvent A solvent used in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. greenhouse gas A gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range, so contributing to the 'greenhouse effect'. (via chlorofluorocarbon )

Application(s):	refrigerant A substance used in a thermodynamic heat pump cycle or refrigeration cycle that undergoes a phase change from a gas to a liquid and back. Refrigerants are used in air-conditioning systems and freezers or refrigerators and are assigned a "R" number (by ASHRAE - formerly the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers), which is determined systematically according to their molecular structure. NMR chemical shift reference compound Any compound that produces a peak used as reference frequency in the delta chemical shift scale. NMR solvent A solvent used in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.
