  • Process for the manufacture of fluorocarbons
    Patent number: 6596910
    Abstract: Disclosed is an improved HFC manufacturing processes of the type which produces an intermediate product stream that includes a mixture of HF and at least one compound, usually an HCFC, which is relatively resistant to further fluorination. The improvement involves separating the unreactive compound(s) from the product stream, preferably using liquid:liquid phase separation, and substantially avoiding recycle of the unreactive compound to the fluorination reaction. The separated unreactive compound(s) are substantially free of HF.

  • Process for the manufacture of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane
    Patent number: 5763706
    Abstract: An integrated manufacturing process for producing HFC-245fa, HFC-236fa or a mixture thereof by reaction of HCC-240fa, HCC-230 or a mixture thereof with HF. HCC-240fa, HCC-230 or a mixture thereof is reacted with hydrogen fluoride in a liquid phase in the presence of a fluorination catalyst. Optionally, produced HCl is removed by distillation. HF present is thereafter recovered by liquid-vapor extraction. Unsaturated compounds are then removed by photochlorination and HFC-245fa, HFC-236fa or a mixture thereof is obtained by distillation.
