What Does PAFP Stand For?

PAFP stands for Photochemical Aerosol Forming Potential

Photochemical Aerosol Forming Potential (PAFP) is a scientific measure used to evaluate the capacity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other precursors to contribute to the formation of secondary aerosols through photochemical reactions in the atmosphere. PAFP is important for understanding air quality dynamics and the impact of various emissions on particulate matter formation and climate change.
