摘要:
Disclosed are methods of cleaning articles of manufacture using hydrofluorocarbon and hydrochlorofluorocarbon fluids. The methods comprise generally the steps of (a) providing a hydrofluorocarbon and/or hydrochlorofluorocarbon fluid in liquid or supercritical state; (b) contacting an article of manufacture with said fluid; and (c) removing substantially all of said fluid from said article of manufacture.
摘要:
A method for separating water from a chemical mixture is provided. In the process of the invention, water is separated from a chemical mixture by contacting the chemical mixture with a water-soluble polymer.
摘要:
Azeotrope-like compositions of trifluoromethane, carbon dioxide, ethane, and hexafluoroethane are provided. The compositions of the invention are environmentally desirable for use as refrigerants, aerosol propellants, blowing agents for polymer foam, heat transfer media, and gaseous dielectrics.
摘要:
Hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants are not soluble in hydrocarbon oil. Retrofitting refrigeration equipment with hydrofluorocarbons generally entails the use of expensive polyol ester (POE) lubricants. The invention provides hydrofluorocarbon refrigerant compositions that are soluble in hydrocarbon oil thus allowing for a simpler and less expensive retrofit option to the refrigerant user.
摘要:
Provided are methods of introducing environmentally desirable refrigerants into refrigeration systems. The present methods involve recharging a refrigerant system that contains a chlorine-containing refrigerant and a lubricant comprising the steps of (a) removing the chlorine-containing refrigerant from the refrigeration system while retaining a substantial portion of the lubricant in said system; and (b) introducing to said system a composition comprising: (i) a refrigerant; (ii) a surfactant; and (iii) a solubilizing agent.

Provided are azeotropic and azeotrope-like mixtures of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HFC-245fa) and 1-chloro-1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HCFC-235fa) that are useful as intermediates in the production of HFC-245fa. A process for separating HFC-245fa and HCFC-235fa is also provided. HFC-245fa is useful as a nontoxic, zero ozone depleting fluorocarbon useful as solvents, blowing agents, refrigerants, cleaning agents, aerosol propellants, heat transfer media, gaseous dielectrics, fire extinguishing compositions and power cycle working fluids.
摘要:
This invention relates to azeotrope-like compositions, methods and systems having utility in numerous applications, and in particular, uses for azeotrope-like compositions comprising effective amounts of the compound cis-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene (Z-HFO-1336mzzm), which has the following structure: and another material selected from the group consisting of water, fluoroketones, alcohols, hydrochlorofluoroolefins, and combinations of two or more thereof. These compositions may be used in a wide variety of applications such as, blowing agents, refrigerants, heating agents, power cycle agents, cleaning agents, aerosol propellants, sterilization agents, lubricants, flavor and fragrance extractants, flammability reducing agents, and flame suppression agents.
摘要:
The present invention pertains to azeotropic and azeotrope-like compositions of the following three blends: 1. Trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze(E)), cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze(Z)) and hydrogen fluoride (HF); 2. HFO-1234ze(E), 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HFC-245fa) and HF; and 3. HFO-1234ze(Z), HFC-245fa and HF. These azeotropic and azeotrope-like compositions are useful as intermediates in the production of HFO-1234ze(E).
摘要:
The invention is directed to a ternary azeotrope-like mixture consisting essentially of effective amounts of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane, 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene, and hydrogen fluoride.
