RT null T1 Flexible and Rigid Foams: Sourcebook of Technologies for Protecting the Ozone Layer - September 1996 Update A1 United Nations Environment Programme, A1 Multilateral Fund for the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol, K1 plastic foam K1 hydrochlorofluorocarbon K1 ozone layer K1 ozone-depleting substance K1 chlorofluorocarbon K1 polymer and plastic technology K1 technology SN 92-807-1430-9 YR 1996 FD 1996 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/32756 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/32756 NO As the polymer foam manufacturing industry world-wide is a small and relatively well -defined group of companies, it is highly unlikely that manufacturers have failed to learn something of the need for the phase-out of the use of ODSs. However, the environmental importance of this action and the pivotal role of manufacturers in Article 5 countries may only have been recognised recently. For companies seeking to phase-out their use of ODSs, access to information on alternative technology options is critical. It is for this reason that Sourcebooks such as this are required.
