Atmospheric chemistry of E-CF3CH=CHCF3: Reaction kinetics of OH radicals and products of OH-initiated oxidation
The reaction rate coefficients for the E-CF3CH=CHCF3 with OH were measured using the relative rate method: k (298 K) = (1.10 +/- 0.02)x10(-13) and k (253-328 K) = (4.80 +/- 0.92)x10(-13) exp [-(445 +/- 28)/T] cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). The atmospheric lifetime was 105 d, and the radiative efficiency (RE) was 0.171 Wm(-2) ppb(-1). The estimated POCPs were evaluated as 0.8 and 0.3 under North-west European and USA urban conditions, respectively. The global warming potential was estimated as 7 for the global 100-year time horizon. CF3OOOCF3, CF3C(O) H, COF2, CO, and CO2 were observed as carbon-containing products.
