Abstract:
A method for producing a tetrafluoroolefin, such as 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf), comprises dehydrofluorinating a pentafluoroalkane in a gas phase in the presence of a catalyst comprising chromium oxyfluoride. In a preferred embodiment, 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf) is produced by forming a catalyst comprising chromium oxyfluoride by calcining CrF3?xH2O, where x is 1-10, in the presence of a flowing gas comprising nitrogen to form a calcined chromium oxyfluoride, and dehydrofluorinating 1,1,1,2,2-pentafluoropropane (HFC-245cb) in a gas phase in the presence of the catalyst to form the 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf).

Provided are azeotrope or azeotrope-like compositions comprised of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd) and 1,1-dichloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethane (HCFC-123).
Abstract:
A trans-1,2-dichloroethylene blend which comprises a combination of a major amount of trans-1,2-dichloroethylene and a minor amount of a hydrohaloolefin having an elevated flash point is disclosed The combination exhibits a flash point significantly higher than trans-1, 2 -dichloroethylene alone The preferred hydrohaloolefin is 1-chloro-3,3,3-trιfluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd) The subject blends find application as heat transfer agents, propellents and sprayable compositions, blowing agents, solvents and cleaning agents.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to solvent/cleaner and heat transfer fluid compositions comprising at least one hydrochlorofluoroolefin (HCFO), 1-chloro-3, 3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd), particularly the trans- isomer. The HCFO of the present invention can be used in combination with co-agents including, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), hydrocarbons, ethers including hydrofluoroethers (HFEs), esters, ketones, alcohols, 1,2-transdichloroethylene and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
This invention relates to the use of chloro-trifluoropropenes as refrigerants in negative-pressure liquid chillers and methods of replacing an existing refrigerant in a chiller with chloro-trifluoropropenes. The chloro-trifluoropropenes, particularly 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene, have high efficiency and unexpectedly high capacity in liquid chiller applications and are useful as more environmentally sustainable refrigerants for such applications, including the replacement of R-123 and R-11.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method for purifying cyclic lactams containing 6 to 12 carbon atoms and containing chlorolactams as impurities, by hydrogenation reaction in the presence of a metal catalyst, a solvent and a compound having a radical -NH2, -NH or -N
Abstract:
A process for the synthesis of hydrocchlorofluoro olefins (HCFO) and/or hydrofluoroolefins (HFO). The process is based on the steps of fluorination of hydrochloropropenes or hydrochloropropanes to form hydrochlorofluoropropenes and/or hydrofluoropropenes, followed by gas phase, catalytic fluorination of the hydrochlorofluoropropenes to form hydrofluoropropenes. The process produces 1,1, 1,2- tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf) from "feedstock" such as tetrachloropropenes, 1,1,2,3 tetrachloropropene (HCO-1230xa) and/or 1,1,1,2 tetrachloropropene (HCO-1230xf) or pentachloropropanes, HCC-240db, HCC-240aa and/or HCC-240ab which are precursors of the tetrachloropropenes. The process of the present invention comprises the steps of: a) liquid phase or gas phase fluorination of tetrachloropropene (which may be formed via gas phase fluorination of pentachloropropane), in the presence or absence of homogenous or heterogeneous catalyst; to form the intermediate product HCFO- 1233xf and thereafter b) gas phase, catalytic fluorination of the intermediate HCFO-1233xf to form the hydrofluoropropene product 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf).
