Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lubricant composition comprises a lubricant and a stabilizer. The stabilizer comprises a first epoxide group and a second functional group selected from the group consisting of (i) a second epoxide group; (ii) an aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bond conjugated with a second carbon-carbon multiple bond; (iii) an aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bond conjugated with an electron withdrawing group; and (iv) an aliphatic carbon-carbon multiple bond conjugated with an aromatic group. A heat transfer composition comprises a lubricant composition as described above and a haloalkane, such as an iodoalkane (e.g., trifluoroiodomethane).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A heat transfer composition comprising: (a) a lubricant composition comprising: (i) a lubricant; and (ii) glycidyl sorbate; and (b) a haloalkane composition comprising trifluoroiodomethane, difluoromethane, and pentafluoroethane. 2. The heat transfer composition of claim 1 , wherein the lubricant is selected from the group consisting of polyol esters, polyalkylene glycols, silicone oils, mineral oil, alkylbenzenes, polyvinyl ethers, poly(alpha-olefins), and mixtures thereof. 3. The heat transfer composition of claim 2 , wherein the lubricant is a polyol ester lubricant. 4. The heat transfer composition of claim 2 , wherein the lubricant is a polyvinyl ether lubricant. 5. The heat transfer composition of claim 1 , wherein glycidyl sorbate is present in the lubricant composition in an amount of about 0.01 wt. % to about 20 wt.%, based on the total weight of the lubricant and glycidyl sorbate present in the lubricant composition. 6. The heat transfer composition of claim 1 , wherein the lubricant composition is present in the heat transfer composition in an amount of about 0.1 wt. % to about 70 wt. % based on the total weight of the heat transfer composition. 7. The heat transfer composition of claim 1 , wherein the heat transfer composition comprises about 45 wt. % to about 55 wt. % difluoromethane, about 7 wt. % to about 17 wt. % pentafluoroethane, and about 35 wt. % to about 45 wt. % trifluoroiodomethane, based on the total weight of difluoromethane, pentafluoroethane, and trifluoroiodomethane present in the heat transfer composition.
