Compositions and Use of Vinylidene Fluoride and Blends Thereof

摘要

The present technology relates to compositional blends that can be used as refrigerants, and more specifically to blends of vinylidene fluoride and at least one other component for use in very low temperature applications. In at least some examples, the second component can be selected from the group consisting of carbon dioxide and pentafluoroethane. Further, the compositions can be azeotropic or azeotrope-like.

主权项

1. A refrigerant composition comprising a mixture of vinylidene fluoride and a second component, wherein the mixture has an ozone depletion potential of less than about 0.001, and a Global Warming Potential relative to carbon dioxide for an Integration Time Horizon of 100 years that is less than about 1,000.
