Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions comprising at least one fluoroolefin and an effective amount of stabilizer that may be a terpene, terpenoid or fullerene; or a mixture of a terpene, terpenoid or fullerene with other stabilizers. The stabilized compositions may be useful in cooling apparatus, such as refrigeration, air-conditioning, chillers, and heat pumps, as well as in applications as foam blowing agents, solvents, aerosol propellants, fire extinguishants, and sterilants.

Abstract: Metal corrosion in the presence of methylchloroform is inhibited when thiazolidine is added to the methylchloroform. The inhibitor is useful in degreasing processes and may be used in combination with other known inhibitors.
Abstract: Trichloroethylene is stabilized against oxidation by adding a nitrogen-containing compound selected from among .alpha.-(dimethylamino) propionitrile, thiazole, 1-aza-2-alkoxy-1-cycloalkene and 1,5-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-5-ene. These may be used in combination with ethyl acetate, acetonitrile and pyrazine.
Abstract: Dibromostyrene has a marked tendency to polymerize on storage. The induction period can be lengthened with the use of a stabilizing quantity of n-propylgallate. The induction period can be markedly prolonged when the gallate ester is admixed with phenothiazine, N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine, or 4-tert-butyl catechol.
Abstract: An alkyl alkynyl sulfide can be employed to stabilizer methylchloroform against reaction with the common metals of construction. Stabilization is enhanced by combining with other known stabilizers. Nitroalkanes, alkyl nitrates or alkynols may be employed to eliminate the need of dioxane and alkylene oxides, while the use of the alkyl nitrates or alkynols eliminates the need for a nitroalkane in the stabilizer formulation.
