Description
- The present invention relates to an azeotropic solvent composition comprising a dichloropentafluoropropane (hereinafter referred to as "HCFC-225") and a fluorine alcohol.
- Trichlorotrifluoroethane (hereinafter referred to as "CFC-113"), one of chlorofluoroethane compounds, is incombustible, low in toxity to living bodies and excellent in selective solvent power that it can dissolve fats and oils, greases, waxes, and the like without erosion of polymer substances such as plastics and rubbers. Accordingly, CFC-113 has hitherto been widely used alone or in the state of a mixture or azeotropic composition with another organic solvent as a solvent, a cleaning solvent, or the like.
- Recently, a problem of environmental pollution that chlorofluoroethane compounds in which all hydrogen atoms of ethane are substituted by chlorine atoms and fluorine atoms (hereinafter referred to as "perhaloethanes") such as CFC-113 destroy the ozone layer surrounding the earth has been raised on a global scale. Therefore, it is urgently required to decrease the used amount of such perhaloethanes or to omit the use of the perhaloethane.
- As one of methods decreasing the used amount of the perhaloethane, for example, a method using a mixed solvent of CFC-113 with an organic solvent other than the perhaloethanes has been studied. According to the method, however, the used amount of CFC-113 can be decreased no more than a certain extent, because the performances of the mixed solvent are lowered. Also, when using CFC as the mixed solvent, it is required to easily control the liquid composition of the solvent and to easily recover and reuse the solvent, moreover, it is desired that the mixed solvent can be applied to steam cleaning. For satisfying the requirements as mentioned above, it is necessary that the mixed solvents are azeotropic mixtures. It is not easy to find such a mixture. Thus, no useful substitute has been found.
- On the other hand, though as to solvents containing no perhaloethane at all, various studies have been made, no useful substitute has been found, too.
- Although mixed solvents of a halogenated organic solvent and a fluorine alcohol have been also known in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 12864/1971, azeotropic compositions of HCFC-225 and a fluorine alcohol have not been found out. Also, mixed solvents of a halogenated organic solvent, particularly fluorocarbon solvents, and a hydrocarbon alcohol have hitherto been well known. The mixted solvents have, however, a defect that an acid such as hydrochloric acid generates in the presence of moisture to corrode metals. Thus, when the mixed solvent is used, it is required to remove moisture, or use conditions or kinds of materials to be washed are limited.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an azeotropic solvent composition containing no CFC-113, which has the improved rogin-flux cleaning power, which destroys scarcely the ozone layer, and which is incombustible.
- This and other objects of the present invention will become apparent from the description hereinafter.
- In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an azeotropic solvent composition comprising a dichloropentafluoropropane and a fluorine alcohol. The composition of the present invention, surprisingly, does not corrode metals even in the presence of moisture and is stable.
- HCFC-225 used in the present invention has isomers such as 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane [boiling point (bp) : 51°C], 1,2-dichloro-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 56°C), 1,3-dichloro-1,2,2,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 56.1°C), 2,2-dichloro-1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 54°C), 2,3-dichloro-1,1-2,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 56°C), 3,3-dichloro-1,1,2,2,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 58°C), 1,1-dichloro-1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 49°C), 1,3-dichloro-1,1,2,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 48°C) and 1,2-dichloro-1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 50°C).
- HCFC-225 is incombustible, low in toxity to living bodies and chemically stable, and has the selective solvent power that it can wash and remove stains such as fats and oils, exerting scarcely influence on plastics, rubbers, metals, and the like. Moreover, HCFC-225 less destroys the ozone layer than CFC-113.
- In the present invention, as the fluorine alcohol, there are exemplified alcohols having at least two fluorine atoms and not less than two carbon atoms in one molecule. More concretely, fluorine alcohols having the following formulas as mentioned below are cited;
wherein each a, c, e, g and i is an integer of 1 to 5 and each b, d, f, h and j is an integer of 1 to 3. - Among them, trifluoroethanol (bp : 77°C), tetrafluoropropanol (bp : 107°C) and pentafluoropropanol (hereinafter referred to as "5FP", bp : 81°C) are more preferable. Furthermore, 5FP is more preferable because it is incombustible. The fluorine alcohols may be used alone or as an admixture thereof.
- The composition of the present invention comprises HCFC-225 having the above-mentioned properties and the fluorine alcohol. Moreover, since the composition is azeotropic, it is easy to control the liquid composition of the solvent and to recover and reuse the solvent, so the composition can be applied to steam cleaning. Furthermore, the composition is very effective in electric and electronic industries as a cleaning solvent for removing rogin-flux used in soldering of printed-circuit board. The composition is also chemically stable, particularly is remarkably stable even in the presence of moisture and the metal, and has the selective solvent power that it can wash and remove only the stains, exerting no bad influence on plastics, rubbers, metals, and the like. Moreover, the composition less destroys the ozone layer than CFC-113 and is incombustible.
- The mixture of HCFC-225 and the fluorine alcohol forms an azeotropic composition or an azeotropic like composition within the range of a weight ratio of HCFC-225 to the fluorine alcohol of 99.5 to 88.0/0.5 to 12.0, preferably 99.5 to 91.0/0.5 to 9.0. The azotropic composition has an azeotropic temperature of 47,5° to 57.5°C. Examples of the azeotropic mixture and the azeotropic like composition are, for instance, an azeotropic mixture (azeotropic point : 49.8°C) of 93.5 % by weight of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp : 51°C) and 6.5 % by weight of pentafluoropropanol (5FP) (bp : 81°C), an azeotropic mixture (azeotropic point: 54.5 °C) of 92.2 % by weight of 1,3-dichloro-1,2,2,3,3-pentafluoropropane (bp: 56.1°C) and 7.8 % by weight of 5FP (bp: 81°C), an azeotropic like composition of 93.5 to 92.2 % by weight of a mixture of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane and 1,3-dichloro-1,2,2,3,3-pentafluoropropane, the weight ratio of 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropane to 1,3-dichloro-1,2,2,3,3-pentafluoropropane being 0.5 to 99.5/99.5 to 0.5, preferably 5 to 60/95 to 40, more preferably 20 to 50/80 to 50, and 6.5 to 7.8 % by weight of 5FP, and the like. The composition containing mainly HCFC-225 of the present invention is suitable for use not only as a cleaning solvent for removing the rogin-flux which is used in printed-circuit boards and which is difficult to be removed by a single component alone, but also in various uses in which CFC-113 has been generally used, for instance, as a degreasing solvent for removing paraffins, animal and vegetable oils, processing oils; as a cleaning solvent for removing mold release agents used in molding and processing of plastics; as a cleaning solvent for removing waxes used for temporarily fixing silicon wafers used in semiconductors, quartz and ceramics in their processing such as cutting or polishing, pressure sensitive adhesive tapes, paints, inks, and the like; as a disperse medium for ceramics or metal powder; as a drying dehydration desiccant; as a dry-cleaning solvent; and the like.
- Although the composition of the present invention is chemically stable compared to solvents containing an aliphatic alcohol, a stabilizer can be included.
- It is preferred that the stabilizers can be distilled together with the azeotropic composition of the invention or the mixture of the azeotropic composition and the stabilizer can form an azeotropic composition, in addition that the stabilizers have a large effect for stabilizing the composition.
- Examples of the stabilizers as mentioned above are, for instance, aliphatic nitro compounds such as nitromethane, nitroethane and nitropropane; acetylene alcohols such as 3-methyl-1-butyne-3-ol and 3-methyl-1-pentyne-3-ol; epoxides such as glycidol, methyl glycidyl ether, allyl glycidyl ether, phenyl glycidyl ether, 1,2-butylene oxide, cyclohexene oxide and epichlorohydrin; ethers such as dimethoxymethane, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, 1,4-dioxane and 1,3,5-trioxane; unsaturated hydrocarbons such as hexene, heptene, octene, 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene, pentadiene, octadiene, cyclohexene and cyclopentene; olefinic alcohols such as allyl alcohol, 1-butene-3-ol and 3-methyl-1-butene-3-ol; acrylates such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate and butyl acrylate; and the like. The stabilizers may be used alone or as an admixture thereof. Among them, nitromethane is preferable. In addition thereto, other compounds may be used. In such a case as the stabilizer is used with the other compounds, synergic stabilizing effect can be obtained. Examples of the other compounds are, for instance, phenols such as phenol, trimethylphenol, cyclohexylphenol, thymol, 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol, butylhydroxyanisole and isoeugenol; amines such as hexylamine, pentylamine, dipropylamine, diisopropylamine, diisobutylamine, triethylamine, tributylamine, pyridine, N-methylmorpholine, cyclohexylamine, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine and N,N'-diallyl-p-phenylenediamine; toriazoles such as benzotriazole, 2-(2'-hydroxy-5'-methylphenyl)benzotriazole and chlorobenzotriazole; and the like.

Generally, the amount is from 0.1 to 10 % by weight, preferably from 0.5 to 5 % by weight, based on the azeotropic composition. In such a case as nitromethane is used, an amount of nitromethane is from about 0.1 to 1.0 % by weight of the azeotropic composition.
- The stabilizer is used in an amount such that the azeotropic composition is not impaired. Usually, since the stabilizer is used in a small amount such as not more than 1 % by weight, the addition of the stabilizer does not influence much the azeotropic composition.
- The composition of the present invention is the same as or superior to CFC-113 in the flux cleaning power, incombustibility, chemical stability, and the like.
