Abstract

PURPOSE:To stabilize a hydrogen-containing fluoroalkane composition for refrigerator composed of a specific ester compound and a hydrogen-containing fluoroalkane and having low hygroscopicity and excellent compatibility and corrosion resistance by adding a phenolic antioxidant to the composition. CONSTITUTION:This hydrogen-containing fluoroalkane composition for refrigerator is composed of (A) an ester compound derived from (i) one or more ester compounds selected from the formulas I to III (R1 to R4 are alkylene; X1 to X3 are 2-10C aliphatic hydrocarbon group; (l), (m), (n) and (h) are positive numbers), (ii) an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid such as acetic acid and, as necessary, (iii) a polybasic carboxylic acid such as oxalic acid and (B) a hydrogen- containing fluoroalkane at a weight ratio (A/B) of preferably 5/95 to 60/40. The composition is stabilized by adding preferably 0.05-1wt.% of a phenolic antioxidant such as 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol to the composition.

However, since the metal surface is exposed inside the compressor of the refrigerator, and the refrigerating machine oil and the refrigerant coexist there, the metal may be removed during operation at high temperature for a long time. Due to the catalytic action, the refrigerating machine oil and the refrigerant are likely to react with each other, resulting in an increase in the total acid value, corrosion of metal, generation of sludge, etc., which causes a failure of the refrigerator.
