Abstract

The present invention provides a refrigerating machine oil comprising: a base oil; a sulfide compound; and a gallate, wherein a content of the sulfide compound is 0.01 to 2.0% by mass and a content of the gallate is 10 to 500 ppm by mass based on a total amount of the refrigerating machine oil, and the refrigerating machine oil having a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 3 to 500 mm 2 /s.

Claims (16)

1. A refrigerating machine oil comprising:

a base oil;

a sulfide compound; and

a gallate,

wherein a content of the sulfide compound is 0.01 to 2.0% by mass and a content of the gallate is 10 to 500 ppm by mass based on a total amount of the refrigerating machine oil, and

the refrigerating machine oil having a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 3 to 500 mm 2 /s.

2. The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the base oil is at least one selected from an ester with a carbon/oxygen molar ratio of 2.5 or more and 5.8 or less and an ether with a carbon/oxygen molar ratio of 2.5 or more and 5.8 or less; and the kinematic viscosity of the refrigerating machine oil at 40° C. is 3 to 300 mm 2 /s.

3. The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the base oil is at least one selected from a polyol ester obtainable by synthesis of a fatty acid with 4 or more and 9 or less carbon atoms and a polyalcohol with 4 or more and 12 or less carbon atoms, a polyalkylene glycol, a compound in which hydroxyl groups at both ends of a polyalkylene glycol are etherified, and a polyvinyl ether.

4. The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , further comprising 0.05 to 3% by mass of an orthophosphate based on the total amount of the refrigerating machine oil.

5. The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the sulfide compound is a thiobisphenol compound and the gallate has an alkyl group with 1 to 18 carbon atoms.

6. The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , further comprising 2 to 20% by mass of pentaerythritol tetra(2-ethylhexanoate) based on the total amount of the refrigerating machine oil.

7. A working fluid composition for a refrigerating machine consisting of:

a refrigerant with a global warming potential of 700 or less; and

the refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 .

8. The working fluid composition for a refrigerating machine according to claim 7 , wherein the refrigerant is a refrigerant comprising at least one selected from a hydrofluorocarbon, a hydrofluoroolefin, carbon dioxide and a hydrocarbon with 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

9. The working fluid composition for a refrigerating machine according to claim 7 , wherein the refrigerant is a refrigerant comprising at least one selected from difluoromethane and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene.
