New immiscible refrigeration lubricant for HFCs.

Author(s) : SUNAMI M., TAKIGAWA K., SUDA S.

Summary

The study examines the application of alkylbenzene, which has been used for many years as refrigeration oil, to high-pressure dome type rotary compressors for HFCs. By utilizing the low miscibility of alkylbenzene with HFC refrigerants at high temperatures and pressures, both good lubrication and good oil return performance were achieved at an extremely low viscosity. The results for lubrication performance showed that even low-viscosity alkylbenzene provided better durability and reliability than conventional mineral oil.
