Abstract
Heterogenous azeotrope or azeotrope-like compositions comprising 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb) and water which may include from about 0.05 wt. % to about 92.01 wt. % 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb) and from about 7.99 wt. % to about 99.95 wt. % water and having a boiling point between about 13.5° C. and about 14.5° C. at a pressure of between about 12.5 psia and about 16.5 psia. The azeotrope or azeotrope-like compositions may be used to separate impurities from 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb).
Claims13
A composition comprising an azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition consisting essentially of from about 0.05 wt. % to about 92.01 wt. % 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb) and from about 7.99 wt. % to about 99.95 wt. % water.
A method of forming an azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition as defined in any preceding claim comprising the step of combining 2-chloro-1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane (HCFC-244bb) and water to form the azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition.
