Publication number: 20140245761Abstract: A PAG lubricant basefluid for use with a fluoroalkene refrigerant, the basefluid containing a PAG having the formula: RX(RaO)x(RbO)yRc, where R is selected from alkyl groups having from 1-10 carbon atoms, acyl groups having from 1-10 carbon atoms, aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having from 2-6 valencies, and substituents containing a heterocyclic ring in which the heteroatom(s) are oxygen; X is O or S; Ra is a C2 alkylene group; Rb is a C3 alkylene group; Rc is the same as R or is an H; x and y are each independently 0 or an integer ?100; and the sum of x+y is an integer in the range of from about 5-100. Refrigeration and lubricant compositions containing the PAG lubricant basefluid and a method of operating a motor-integrated compressor of a refrigeration or air conditioning system with substantially no electrical leakage current are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2014Publication date: September 4, 2014Applicant: SHRIEVE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS, Inc.Inventors: Elizabeth DIXON, Phil Beckler
