The popularity of aerosols has been declining. A widely used group of propellants, the fluorinated hydrocarbons, have been restricted in use since it was found that they can harm the environment by reducing the o2one layer of the upper atmosphere (see AiRPOLLUTlON ATMOSPHERIC MODELING Ozone). 

Fluorides. Tantalum pentafluoride [7783-71-3] TaF, (mp = 96.8° C, bp = 229.5° C) is used in petrochemistry as an isomerization and alkalation catalyst. In addition, the fluoride can be utilized as a fluorination catalyst for the production of fluorinated hydrocarbons. The pentafluoride is produced by the direct fluorination of tantalum metal or by reacting anhydrous hydrogen fluoride with the corresponding pentoxide or oxychloride in the presence of a suitable dehydrating agent (71). The ability of TaF to act as a fluoride ion acceptor in anhydrous HF has been used in the preparation of salts of the AsH, H S, and PH ions (72). The oxyfluorides TaOF [20263-47-2] and Ta02F [13597-27-8] do not find any industrial appHcation. 

Vapor Pressure. The Shiley Infusaid implantable infusion pump utilizes energy stored in a two-phase fluorinated hydrocarbon fluid. The pump consists of a refillable chamber that holds the dmg and a chamber that holds the fluid. The equiUbrium vapor pressure of the fluid, a constant 60 kPa (450 mm Hg), compresses the bellows, pumping the dmg through a bacterial filter, a capillary flow restrictor, and an infusion cannula to the target body site (56,116). 

Polyamide or polyimide polymers are resistant to aliphatic, aromatic, and chlorinated or fluorinated hydrocarbons as well as to many acidic and basic systems but are degraded by high-temperature caustic exposures. 

Torlon-type polymers are unaffected by aliphatic, aromatic, chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons, dilute acids, aldehydes, ketones, ethers and esters. Resistance to alkalis is poor. They have excellent resistance to radiation. If a total of 10 Mrad is absorbed at a radiation dosage of 1 Mrad/h the tensile strength decreases by only 5%. 

Industrially, chlorine is obtained as a by-product in the electrolytic conversion of salt to sodium hydroxide. Hazardous reactions have occuned between chlorine and a variety of chemicals including acetylene, alcohols, aluminium, ammonia, benzene, carbon disulphide, diethyl ether, diethyl zinc, fluorine, hydrocarbons, hydrogen, ferric chloride, metal hydrides, non-metals such as boron and phosphorus, rubber, and steel.

The term fluorous biphase has been proposed to cover fully fluorinated hydrocarbon solvents (or other fluorinated inert materials, for example ethers) that are immiscible with organic solvents at ambient conditions. Like ionic liquids the ideal concept is that reactants and catalysts would be soluble in the (relatively high-boiling) fluorous phase under reaction conditions but that products would readily separate into a distinct phase at ambient conditions (Figure 5.5). 

One major use of HF is in the manufacture of fluorinated hydrocarbons. Fluorinated ethylene is used for several specialty polymers. For example, the Teflon coating on nonstick cookware is made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This polymer is made from tetrafluoroethylene. 

The addition of perfluoroalkyl iodides to simple olefins has been quite successful under aqueous conditions to synthesize fluorinated hydrocarbons.119 In addition to carbon-based radicals, other radicals such as sulfur-based radicals, generated from RSH-type precursors (R = alkyl, acyl) with AIBN, also smoothly add to a-allylglycines protected at none, one, or both of the amino acid functions (NH2 and/or CO2H). Optimal results were obtained when both the unsaturated amino...

The balance of the compounds in Table VIII support the earlier statement that any compound containing fluorine is toxic to moths. These fluorinated hydrocarbons, phenols, acids, sulfonic acids, and sulfones probably act against moths as stomach poisons. The fluorosulfonic acid derivatives and the sulfone with a fluorinated substituent were key compounds whose toxicity to moths laid the groundwork for the deductions which led to the synthesis and testing of DDT as an insecticide.

Some of the fluorinated hydrocarbons—e.g., trifluoromethane 44), 1,1-difluoroethane 45), and difluorodichloromethane 82)—are known to be chemically inactive and physiologically inert. Stepwise replacement of the chlorine atoms in chloroform by fluorine yields the dichlorofluoromethane and chlorodifluoromethane, neither of which is as toxic as the original substance (7).

Synthetic Rubbers. Synthetic rubbers are polymers with rubberlike characteristics that are prepared from dienes or olefins. Rubbers with special properties can also be prepared from other polymers, such as polyacrylates, fluorinated hydrocarbons, and polyurethanes. 

Silylation of AN with BSA and BSTFA produces as by-products A-trimethyl-silylacetamide (bp 70°C/35mm Hg) and A-trimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide (bp 60°C/35mm Hg), respectively. Owing to high volatility typical of fluorinated hydrocarbons, distillation of BSTFA from the reaction mixture seems to be more favorable, although their high casts should also be taken into account. 

Fluorine flame calorimetry is a logical extension of oxygen flame calorimetry in which a gas is burned in excess of gaseous oxidant (214). The decision does not reach that of the oxygen flame calorimeter in which, for example, Affj(H20) was determined with a standard deviation of 0.01%. Combustions of H2, NH3 (8), and fluorinated hydrocarbons are typical applications, but the uncertain nonideality corrections of HF(g) prevent full realization of the inherent accuracy. 

The fuel cell coolant system uses a liquid fluorinated hydrocarbon and transfers the waste heat from the cell stack through the fuel cell heat exchanger of the fuel cell power plant to the Freon-21 coolant loop system in the midfuselage. Internal control of the circulating fluid keeps the cell stack at an operating temperature of approximately 200°F. 

To record the infrared spectra, samples of the parent kaolinite and the three hydrates were dispersed in a fluorinated hydrocarbon. The mulls were squeezed between calcium fluoride plates and the sample was placed directly in the beam of a Perkin-Elmer 683 spectrometer. This mounting technique results in a tendency for the clay layers to align themselves perpendicular to the beam of the spectrometer. Infrared spectra of these materials have been pub-...
