METHOD FOR PURIFYING 1,1,1,3,3-PENTAFLUOROPROPANE

摘要

HFC-245fa is effectively separated from the mixture comprising 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane (HFC-245fa) and HF through a purification process comprising contacting at least one extraction agent selected from the group consisting of (a) a compound corresponds to the general formula (I): CxFyHz, (b) a compound corresponds to the general formula (II): R1R2R3N, (c) an compound corresponds to the general formula (III): R4OR5 and (d) a compound corresponds to the general formula (IV): ClClmHn with a mixture comprising 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride so as to form a liquid mixture and separating the liquid mixture into two liquid layers, followed by obtaining an extraction agent phase including HFC-245fa and the extraction agent as the main components, and separatively recovering HFC-245fa from the extraction agent phase. <IMAGE>
