AZEOTROPIC AND AZEOTROPE-LIKE COMPOSITIONS OF Z-1,1,1,4,4,4-HEXAFLUOROBUT-2-ENE

Abstract:

This application provides azeotropic and near-azeotropic compositions of Z-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluorobut-2-ene (Z-HFO-1336mzz) and a second component selected from the group consisting of n-butane and isobutane. The inventive compositions are useful as aerosol propellants, refrigerants, cleaning agents, expansion agents for thermoplastic and thermoset foams, solvents, heat transfer media, power cycle working fluids, polymerization media, particulate removal fluids, carrier fluids, buffing abrasive agents, and displacement drying agents.
