   4. <skos:note xml:lang="en">Generic name for any of a class of compounds (chemical name: bromotrifluoromethane) formerly used as a fire-extinguishing agent. When exposed to flame, these chlorofluorocarbon gases release halogen atoms which interact with hydrogen atoms, suppressing combustion in the process. They also deplete the earth's ozone when exposed to solar ultraviolet light and have consequently been withdrawn from use.</skos:note>
