The present invention comprises a refrigerant mixture having two halocarbon components. The first component is present in a mole fraction of about 0.7 to less than 1.0 while the second component is present in a mole fraction of more than 0.0 to about 0.3. The first component is CH2FCF3. The second component can be CHClFCF3, CH3CClF2, a mixture of CHClFCF3 and CH3CClF2, a mixture of CHF2CH3 and CHClFCF3, a mixture of CHF2CH3 and CH3CClF2, or a mixture of CHClFCF3, CH3CClF2 and CHF2CH3. The preferred embodiment of this invention comprises about 0.7 to less than 1.0 mole fraction CH2FCF3, and more than 0.0 to about 0.3 mole fraction of a mixture of CHClFCF3 and CH3CClF2. The most preferred embodiment of this invention comprises about 0.7 to less than 1.0 mole fraction CH2FCF3 and more than 0.0 to about 0.3 mole fraction CH3CClF2. The resulting refrigerant has a vapor pressure close to-that of CF2Cl2, a nearly constant vapor pressure with evaporation, and is substantially less damaging to the Earth's ozone layer than CF2Cl2.
