Summary

For the prevention of global warming, it is important for home electric appliance to improve the energy saving performance. Air-conditioner is one of home electric appliances, and the improvement of energy consumption efficiency is being performed by various ways. Lubricant for air-conditioner is used to protect sliding surfaces of a compressor. The low friction coefficient lubricant is considered to improve the friction coefficient between rotor and vane of the rotary-type compressor. We evaluated the friction and the wear on PVE refrigeration lubricants for HFC refrigerants. The friction coefficient and wear were measured by using the hermetic type block-on-ring tester. The evaluation items were physical properties (miscibility, solubility, mixture viscosity and volumetric resistivity) and thermal stability.
