Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 40 words
Azeotrope-like compositions consisting essentially of from about 5.0 to about 50.0 weight percent of pentafluorodimethyl ether and from about 95.0 weight percent to about 50.0 weight percent monochlorodifluoromethane which have a vapor pressure of about 73.8 psia at 32° F.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 40 words
Azeotrope-like compositions consisting essentially of from about 5.0 to about 50.0 weight percent of pentafluorodimethyl ether and from about 95.0 weight percent to about 50.0 weight percent monochlorodifluoromethane which have a vapor pressure of about 73.8 psia at 32° F.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
The azeotrope-like compositions of claim 1 consisting essentially of from about 20 weight percent to about 40.0 weight percent pentafluorodimethyl ether and from about 80.0 weight percent to about 60.0 weight percent monochlorodifluoromethane.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The azeotrope-like compositions of claim 1 consisting essentially of about 28.9 weight percent pentafluorodimethyl ether and about 71.1 weight percent monochlorodifluoromethane.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
Azeotrope-like compositions of claim 1 wherein said compositions have a vapor pressure of about 73.8 ± about 3 psia at 32° F.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing refrigeration which comprises condensing a composition of claim 1 and thereafter evaporating said composition in the vicinity of a body to be cooled.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
A method for producing refrigeration which comprises condensing a composition of claim 3 and thereafter evaporating the said composition in the vicinity of the body to be cooled.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing heating which comprises condensing a composition of claim 3 in the vicinity of a body to be heated and thereafter evaporating said composition.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing refrigeration which comprises condensing a composition of claim 5 and thereafter evaporating said composition in the vicinity of a body to be cooled.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing heating which comprises condensing a composition of claim 5 in the vicinity of a body to be heated and thereafter evaporating said composition.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing refrigeration which comprises condensing a composition of claim 7 and thereafter evaporating said composition in the vicinity of a body to be cooled.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method for producing heating which comprises condensing a composition of claim 7 in the vicinity of a body to be heated and thereafter evaporating said composition.
