AZEOTROPIC AND AZEOTROPE-LIKE COMPOSITIONS AND A PROCESS FOR SEPARATING HCl AND HALOCARBONS

摘要

The present invention discloses azeotropic or azeotrope-like compositions which include HCl that can be employed in a distillation or an extractive distillation process for separating HCl from pentafluoroethane, chloropentafluoroethane, chlorotrifluoroethane, trifluoromethane, and other fully saturated and unsaturated fluorocarbons, chlorofluorocarbons and chlorocarbons.
