Summary

Surface tension and kinematic viscosity of binary mixtures of R1234yf and R32 are measured by surface light scattering (SLS) under saturated conditions between 293K and 343K. The R1234yf (1) + R32 (2) mixtures were prepared with mass fractions w1 of 0.362, 0.482, 0.670 and 0.923. For determination of the liquid kinematic viscosity, the expinties on a confidence level of more than 95 % (k = 2) are estimated to be ± 2 % for reduced temperatures Tr(= T/Tc) < 0.95, and ± 6 % for Tr close to 0.99. For the surface tension, the expanded uncertainties are less than ± 1.5% (k = 2) in the whole temperature range. The result can be applied to the utilization and exploitation of refrigerant.
