sing Z-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene and E-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene Mixtures as the Blowing Agent

[0050]The foaming was carried out at 1000 psi (6.9 MPa) sprayer gauge pressure using different mixtures of these blowing agents and at different foaming temperatures. The results are reported in Table 2.

[0051]The numerical amounts of Z and E in the Isomer mixture column are the wt % s of the isomer in the mixture. Thus, isomer mixture Z40 / E60 means the mixture is 40 wt % Z-isomer and 60 wt % E-isomer. The poor quality of the sprayed foam for the 40Z / 60E and 50Z / 50E compositions is exhibited by the foam structure being frothy, i.e. exhibiting large op...

y of Blowing Agent in Polyol of B-Side

[0057]E-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene has a boiling temperature of 7.5° F. (1 atm) and causes the polyisocyanate / polyol reaction product to froth uncontrollably when the E-isomer is used by itself as the blowing agent, which disrupts the spray pattern when this method of application is used. This disruption of the spray pattern causes the deposited foamed structure to exhibit a rough exterior surface arising from expansion of the E-isomer that is not dissolved in the polyol of the B-side composition. A “frothed” foam lacks integrity by being easily collapsed. A comparison of solubilities when the E-isomer is the only blowing agent and when 10 wt % (based on the weight of the polyol of the B-side composition) of the Z-isomer is supplemented by the E-isomer is presented in Table 4.

[0109]HFO-1336mzz(E) / HFO-1336mzz(Z) Blends Approximating the Volumetric Capacity for Power Generation of HFC-245Fa without Exceeding the Equipment Maximum Permissible Working Pressure

[0110]Table 8 compares the performance of Rankine cycles operated at an evaporating temperature of 120° C. with HFO-1336mzz-E / HFO-1336mzz-Z blends of various compositions to performance of a Rankine cycle operated at the same evaporating temperature with HFC-245fa. The volumetric capacity for power generation with blend A.1 is within 5% of that with HFC-245fa. The volumetric capacity for power generation with blend A.2 matches that with HFC-245fa with an evaporating pressure not exceeding that of HFC-245fa. The volumetric capacity for power generation with blend A.3 exceeds that with HFC-245fa by about 5% with an evaporating pressure not exceeding 2.18 MPa. Finally, the volumetric capacity for power generation with blend A.4 is the maximum possible (higher than that with HFC-245fa by about 12.5%) with a...
