Abstract

The present invention relates to compositions comprising (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene (i.e., R-1225ye(E) or HFO-1225ye(E)), HFO-1234yf, R-32, CO 2 , and, optionally, R-125, and methods of using the HFO-1225ye(E) composition in refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump systems, or for replacing R-410A or R-32 in refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump systems.

Claims (18)

1. A composition comprising 28 to 37 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 36 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 18 to 30 weight percent R-32, and 9 to 15 weight percent CO 2 .

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the GWP of the composition is less than 150.

3. The composition of claim 2 , wherein the composition comprises 35 to 37 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 35 to36 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 18 to 20 weight percent R-32, and 9 to 10 weight percent CO 2 .

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises 28 to 32 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 32 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 24 to 30 weight percent R-32, and 12 to 15 weight percent CO 2 .

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises 28 to 31 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 30 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 26 to 30 weight percent R-32, and 13 to 15 weight percent CO 2 .

6. A process for producing cooling, comprising condensing the composition of claim 1 and thereafter evaporating said composition in the vicinity of a body to be cooled.

7. A process for producing heating, comprising evaporating the composition of claim 1 and thereafter condensing said composition in the vicinity of a body to be heated.

8. A method of replacing R-410A or R-32 in a refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump system, comprising providing the composition of claim 1 as replacement for said R-410A or R-32.

9. An air conditioning system, heat pump system, or refrigeration system comprising the composition of claim 1 .

10. The air conditioning system, heat pump system, or refrigeration system of claim 9 , wherein the system comprises an evaporator, compressor, condenser, and expansion device.

11. A composition comprising 28 to 35 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 35 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 20 to 30 weight percent R-32, 1 to 11 weight percent R-125, and 4 to 15 weight percent CO 2 .

12. The composition of claim 11 , wherein the composition comprises 28 to 32 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 32 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 24 to 30 weight percent R-32, 1 to 5 weight percent R-125, and 10 to 14 weight percent CO 2 .

13. The composition of claim 11 , wherein the composition c omprises 28 to 29 weight percent (E)-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propene, 27 to 29 weight percent HFO-1234yf, 28 to 30 weight percent R-32, 1 to 4 weight percent R-125, and 11 to 14 weight percent CO 2 .

14. A process for producing cooling, comprising condensing the composition of claim 11 and thereafter evaporating said composition in the vicinity of a body to be cooled.

15. A process for producing heating, comprising evaporating the composition of claim 11 and thereafter condensing said composition in the vicinity of a body to be heated.

16. A method of replacing R-410A or R-32 in a refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump system, comprising providing the composition of claim 11 as replacement for said R-410A or R-32.

17. An air conditioning system, heat pump system, or refrigeration system comprising the composition of claim 11 .

18. The air conditioning system, heat pump system, or refrigeration system of claim 17 , wherein the system comprises an evaporator, compressor, condenser, and expansion device.
