It's Acronym

no E

There're no true abbreviations in your list, they are all acronyms. Int Ex (for Internet Explorer) would be an abbreviation.

The one Acronym missing, that all need to know is:

PFC

Word.

PFC stands for 1 mole of Phosporus, 1 mole of Flouride and 1 mole of Carbon.

In chemistry, it is known as Phosflourcarbonide. It's a very dangerous compound. Avoid contact with eyes.
