Abstract: A resin for coating formation which comprises a polyarylate comprising 2,2-bis(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propane units and a divalent carboxylic acid component comprising 10 to 90 mol % of terephthalic acid units and 90 to 10 mol % of isophthalic acid units, having an inherent viscosity measured in 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane at a concentration of 1 g/dl at 25.degree. C. of 0.85 or more, and having a carboxyl value of 20 mol/ton or less. Also disclosed is a process for producing the resin by interfacial polymerization, using a quaternary ammonium salt or a quaternary phosphonium salt having at least 3 alkyl groups each having at least 3 carbon atoms as a catalyst.

Abstract: A heat exchanging apparatus includes a composite structure of a ferrosoferric oxide and a molybdenum oxide at the internal surface of a heat exchange cycle tube located in a generator. A process of suppressing corrosion of this heat exchanging apparatus includes the step of preparing an ammonia solution including dissolved oxygen of a concentration of approximately 3-8 ppm. Approximately 1 wt %-5 wt % molybdate is added into the ammonia solution. This ammonia solution is sealed within the heat exchange cycle tube to be heated to at least a predetermined temperature in the generator of the heat exchanging apparatus. Thus, a composite structure of a ferrosoferric oxide and molybdenum oxide is formed on the internal surface of the generator. This composite structure allows the suppression of corrosion in the internal surface of the generator.

Abstract: A refrigerator comprising a refrigeration cycle which comprises a compressor, condenser, first capillary tube and first cooler connected into a loop, and a quick freezing refrigerant circuit connected in parallel with the first cooler and comprising a second capillary tube and a second cooler connected in series therewith. The refrigerant is passed through the first cooler for usual operation, or alternatively through the quick freezing circuit for quick freezing. During quick freezing, the first cooler is held out of operation, and the refrigerant has its pressure reduced in two steps by the first and second capillary tubes and is evaporated in the second cooler only, giving a low temperature effective for quick freezing. During usual operation, no refrigerant flows into the second cooler, which therefore remains free of frosting. The frost deposited on the second cooler during quick freezing disappears during the usual operation. Thus, the second cooler is substantially free from frost.
