Patent ID: 7217373

Claim:
A refrigerant composition comprising: (a) at least one fluorocarbon; (b) at least one oxygenated lubricant selected from the group consisting of polyol esters, polyalkylene glycols and polyvinyl ethers; (c) at least one non-oxygenated lubricant selected from the group consisting of paraffins, napthenes, aromatics and poly-α-olefins; and (d) at least one compatibilizer selected from the group consisting of polyoxyalkylene glycol ethers represented by the formula R 1 [(OR 2 ) x OR 3 ] y , wherein: x is selected from integers from 1 to 3; y is selected from integers from 1 to 4; R 1 is selected from hydrogen and aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and y bonding sites; R 2 is selected from aliphatic hydrocarbylene radicals having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms; R 3 is selected from hydrogen, and aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbon radicals having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms; and wherein at least one of R 1 and R 3 is selected from said hydrocarbon radicals; and wherein said polyoxyalkylene glycol ethers have a molecular weight of from about 100 to about 300 atomic mass units and a carbon to oxygen ratio of from about 2.3 to about 5.0.
