The performance of end capped polyalkylene glycol (PAG) as a refrigeration oil for HFC-134a.

Summary

The relation between the chemical structure and performance of double end capped PAG lubricant was evaluated and compared to that of single end capped PAG. The single end capped PAG contains a hydroxyl group, whereas the double end capped PAG does not. Critical difference in respect to hygroscopicity, anti-corrosion performance and lubrication was observed.
