Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To provide a method for stably storing tetrafluoropropene filled in a container for e.g. storage or transportation, without occurrence of reaction such as polymerization. A method for storing tetrafluoropropene in a gaseous-liquid state composed of a gas phase and a liquid phase in a closed container, wherein the oxygen concentration (content) in the above gas phase is adjusted to at least 3 vol ppm and less than 3,000 vol ppm at a temperature of 25° C.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for storing tetrafluoropropene, the method comprising: storing the tetrafluoropropene in a gaseous-liquid state comprising a gas phase and a liquid phase in a closed container, wherein the gas phase has an oxygen concentration of at least 3 vol ppm and less than 3,000 vol ppm at 25° C., and the closed container is made of at least one material selected from the group consisting of a carbon steel, a manganese steel, a chromium-molybdenum steel, a stainless steel, and an aluminum alloy. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the oxygen concentration in the gas phase is at least 5 vol ppm and less than 1,000 vol ppm at 25° C. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the tetrafluoropropene is 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene. 4. A closed container containing tetrafluoropropene in a gaseous-liquid state comprising a gas phase and a liquid phase, wherein the gas phase has an oxygen concentration of at least 3 vol ppm and less than 3,000 vol ppm at 25° C., and the closed container is made of at least one material selected from the group consisting of a carbon steel, a manganese steel, a chromium-molybdenum steel, a stainless steel, and an aluminum alloy. 5. The container according to claim 4 , wherein the oxygen concentration in the above gas phase is at least 5 vol ppm and less than 1,000 vol ppm at 25° C. 6. The container according to claim 4 , wherein the tetrafluoropropene is 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene.
