The present invention relates to the discovery of compositions which
include fluoroethane, 2-fluoropropane or tert-butylfluoride. These
compositions are useful as pure components or with at least one of
tetrafluoroethane, difluoroethane, hexafluoropropane, a hydrocarbon or
dimethylether.These compositions are useful as aerosol propellants,
refrigerants, cleaning agents, expansion agents for polyolefins and
polyurethanes, refrigerants, heat transfer media, gaseous dielectrics,
fire extinguishing agents, power cycle working fluids, polymerization
media, particulate removal fluids, carrier fluids, buffing abrasive
agents, and displacement drying agents.
