摘要:
A process for reducing the fluorosurfactant content of a stabilized fluorosurfactant-containing aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion by passing dispersion through a first fixed bed of anion exchange resin to reduce fluorosurfactant content. The first fixed bed has a working zone which moves though the column as the ion exchange resin is saturated. The process includes monitoring a property of the dispersion as the dispersion exits the fixed bed to determine break though of the working zone indicating saturation of the fixed bed. The property being monitored is selected from the group consisting of pH and conductivity.

A process is disclosed for the separation of a mixture of HF and CF3CCl2CF3. The process involves placing the mixture in a separation zone at a temperature of from about 0° C. to about 100° C. and at a pressure sufficient to maintain the mixture in the liquid phase, whereby an organic-enriched phase comprising less than 69 mole percent HF is formed as the bottom layer and an HF-enriched phase comprising more than 90 mole percent HF is formed as the top layer. The organic-enriched phase can be withdrawn from the bottom of the separation zone and subjected to distillation in a distillation column to recover essentially pure CF3CCl2CF3. The distillate comprising HF and CF3CCl2CF3 can be removed from the top of the distillation column, while essentially pure CF3CCl2CF3 can be recovered from the bottom of the distillation column. Also, the HF-enriched phase can be withdrawn from the top of the separation zone and subjected to distillation in a distillation column. The distillate comprising HF and CF3CCl2CF3 can be removed from the top of the distillation column while essentially pure HF can be recovered from the bottom of the distillation column. If desired, the two distillates can be recycled to the separation zone. Also disclosed are compositions of hydrogen fluoride in combination with an effective amount of CF3CCl2CF3 to form an azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition with hydrogen fluoride. Included are compositions containing from about 13.8 to 31.3 mole percent CF3CCl2CF3. Also disclosed is a process for producing 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane from a mixture comprising HF and CF3CCl2CF3. This process is characterized by preparing essentially pure CF3CCl2CF3 as indicated above, and reacting the CF3CCl2CF3 with hydrogen. Another process for producing 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane disclosed herein is characterized by contacting an azeotrope of CF3CCl2CF3 as indicated above with hydrogen and reacting the CF3CCl2CF3 with hydrogen in the presence of HF.

摘要:
A process is disclosed for the separation of a mixture of HF and CF3CClFCF3. The process involves placing the mixture in a separation zone at a temperature of from about −30° C. to about 100° C. and at a pressure sufficient to maintain the mixture in the liquid phase, whereby an organic-enriched phase comprising less than 50 mole percent HF is formed as the bottom layer and an HF-enriched phase comprising more than 90 mole percent HF is formed as the top layer. The organic-enriched phase can be withdrawn from the bottom of the separation zone and subjected to distillation in a distillation column to recover essentially pure CF3CClFCF3. The distillate comprising HF and CF3CClFCF3 can be removed from the top of the distillation column while essentially pure CF3CClFCF3 can be recovered from the bottom of the distillation column. The HF-enriched phase can be withdrawn from the top of the separation zone and subjected to distillation in a distillation column. The distillate comprising HF and CF3CClFCF3 can be removed from the top of the distillation column while essentially pure HF can be recovered from the bottom of the distillation column. If desired, the two distillates can be recycled to the separation zone. Also disclosed are compositions of hydrogen fluoride in combination with an effective amount of CF3CClFCF3 to form an azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition with hydrogen fluoride. Included are compositions containing from about 38.4 to 47.9 mole percent CF3CClFCF3. Also disclosed are processes for producing 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoro-propane. One process uses a mixture comprising HF and CF3CClFCF3 and is characterized by preparing essentially pure CF3CClFCF3 as indicated above, and reacting the CF3CClFCF3 with hydrogen. Another process uses an azeotropic composition as described above, and reacts the CF3CClFCF3 with hydrogen in the presence of HF. Also disclosed is a process for producing hexafluoropropene. This process is characterized by preparing essentially pure CF3CClFCF3 as indicated above, and dehalogenating the CF3CClFCF3.
