* When a range of PAO is indicated, the highest value of that range shall be used for the purposes of the Protocol. The PAOs listed as a single value were determined from calculations based on laboratory measurements. Those listed as a range are based on estimates and therefore have a much higher degree of uncertainty: a factor of two for HCFCs and a factor of three for HBFC. The range comprises an isomeric group. The higher value is the estimate of the isomer PAO with the highest PAO, and the lower value is the estimate of the isomer PAO with the lowest PAO.
** Identifies the most commercially viable substances. The accompanying PAO values shall be used for the purposes of the Protocol.
