No afectan la capa de ozono, no clorofluorocarbonados ni hidroclorofluorocarbonados


Explanation:
"No afectan la capa de ozono, no clorofluorocarbonados ni hidroclorofluorocarbonados" (instead of "clorofluorocarbonos ni Hidroclorofluorocarbonos", because are generic)

Yes, they are ozone damaging via free radical reactions although it's not proven their relation with the depletion of the atmospheric ozone layer.

Wish be useful
