This invention relates to compositions of
cyclopentane, and a compound selected from the group consisting of hydrofluorocarbons, hydrofluoroethers, or fluorinated
sulfur compounds. Specifically these compounds may be selected from the group consisting of tetrafluoroethane, hexafluoropropane,
pentafluoropropane, tetrafluoropropane, trifluoropropane, difluoropropane, octafluorobutane, hexafluorobutane, pentafluorobutane, nonafluorobutane, difluorobutane, trifluoro-2-methoxyethane and bis(pentafluoroethyl)
sulfide. The compositions, which may be azeotropic or
azeotrope-like, may be used as refrigerants, cleaning agents, expansion agents for polyolefins and polyurethanes,
aerosol propellants, refrigerants,
heat transfer media, gaseous dielectrics, fire extinguishing agents,
power cycle working fluids,
polymerization media, particulate removal fluids, carrier fluids, buffing
abrasive agents or displacement
drying agents.
