Abstract

Abstract The present invention concerns new propellant compositions for aerosols. More particularly, the present invention relates to propellant compositions for aerosols, characterized in that said compositions consist of a mixture of a chlorofluorocarbon or fluorocarbon (A) containing hydrogen and selected from the group consisting of CHClF2, CH2F2 and CF3-CH3, with a chlorofluorocarbon or fluorocarbon (B) containing hydrogen and selected from the group consisting of: CH2ClF, CClF2-CHClF, CF3-CHClF, CHF2-CClF2, CHClF-CHF2, CF3-CH2-Cl, CHF2-CHF2, CF3-CH2F, CClF2-CH3 and CHF2-CH3. In addition to propellant A and propellant B, there may be included a hydrocarbon propellant so that a ternary propellant composition is provided.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A propellant composition for use with aerosols, the composition consisting essentially of a mixture of: (A) from 5 to 60% by weight, based on the total weight of the propellant composition, of a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon selected from the group consisting of CH 2 F 2 and CF 3 --CH 3 , and (B) from 40 to 95% by weight, based on the total weight of the propellant composition, of a hydrogen-containing chlorofluorocarbon or a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon, each being selected from the group consisting of CF 3 --CHClF, CF 3 --CH 2 Cl, CF 3 --CH 2 F, CClF 2 --CH 3 and CHF 2 --CH 3 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
A propellant composition for use with aerosols, the composition consisting essentially of a mixture of: (A) from 5 to 60% by weight, based on the total weight of the propellant composition, of a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon selected from the group consisting of CH 2 F 2 and CF 3 --CH 3 , and (B) from 40 to 95% by weight, based on the total weight of the propellant composition, of a hydrogen-containing chlorofluorocarbon or a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon, each being selected from the group consisting of CF 3 --CHClF, CF 3 --CH 2 Cl, CF 3 --CH 2 F, CClF 2 --CH 3 and CHF 2 --CH 3 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
