CA 02979946 2017-09-15 WO 2016/146940 PCT/FR2016/050577 1 STABILIZATION OF 1-CHLOR0-3,3,3-TRIFLUOROPROPENE FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to compounds for stabilizing 1-chloro-3 ,3,3-tritluoropropene and more precisely to limit or prevent the isomerization of the trans form into the cis form. The invention also relates to the use of such stabilizers in heat transfer applications.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND Trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-tritluoropropene (HCF0-1233zdE) is a product with a low global warming potential (GWP).
It has very favorable thermodynamic and thermophysical properties for use as a heat transfer fluid in cooling, air conditioning, power generation (including organic Rankine cycles) and high temperature heat pump applications. .
HCF0-1233zdE exhibits instability which manifests itself especially at relatively high temperatures.
This instability consists of an isomerization of a fraction of the initial charge resulting in the formation of cis-1chloro3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCF0-1233zdZ).
However, HCF0-1233zdZ is a less volatile product than HCF01233zdE.
The boiling temperature is around 40°C for the Z isomer, and around 18.3°C for the E isomer.
This difference implies a change in the thermodynamic and thermophysical properties of the product in the installations, and a loss of performance, when isomerization occurs.
Document WO 2009/003165 describes the risks of degradation of hydrofluoroolefins and hydrochlorofluoroolefins, as well as stabilizers making it possible to combat this degradation.
These stabilizers include free radical scavenging compounds, acid scavenging compounds, oxygen scavenging compounds and polymerization inhibitors.
The following are mentioned in particular: 1,2-epoxybutane, glycidyl methyl ether, d1 oxide CA 02979946 2017-09-15 WO 2016/146940 PCT / FR2016/050577 2 limonene, 1,2-epoxymethylpropane, nitromethane, alpha methylstyrene, isoprene, phenol, hydroquinones and hydrazine.
US 7,795,480 describes a process for the manufacture of 2-chloro3,3,3-tritluoropropene (HCF0-1233xf).
A compound polymerization phenomenon is mentioned (but not an isomerization phenomenon).
Suggested stabilizers are p-tap(4-tert-amylphenol), methoxyhydroquinone, 4-methoxyphenol, triethylamine, di-isopropylamine, butylated hydroxyanisole and thymol.
Document US Pat. No. 8,217,208 describes the phenomenon of isomerization of HF0-1233zdE under the effect of temperature, but it does not teach stabilizers making it possible to limit this isomerization.
Document US 2012/0226081 describes the risks of degradation of hydrochloroolefins and hydrochloroalkanes, and proposes a set of possible stabilizers: alpha-methylstyrene, alpha-pinoxide, beta pinoxide, 1,2-epoxybutane, 1 ,2-hexadecene oxide and oxygen scavenging compounds such as diethylhydroxylamine, hydroquinone, methylethylketooxime and p-methoxyphenol.
Document US 2015/0034523 describes the risks of degradation of hydrochloroolefins and proposes two families of stabilizers, namely morpholines or trialkyl phosphates.
Almost all of the stabilizers proposed in the state of the art are solid products, or liquid products having a high boiling point.
For example, the boiling temperature of alpha-methylstyrene is 165 C, the boiling temperature of limonene-oxide is above 200 C, etc.
Isoprene, mentioned in document WO 2009/003165, is itself an unstable product, which must generally be combined with a compound such as 4-tert-butylpyrocatechol to prevent its polymerization.
The characteristics described above make the stabilizers unsuitable for certain applications in which HCF0-1233zdE is likely to be used. This is particularly the case for applications using flooded evaporators (especially with compressors without lubricating oil).
In such applications, the prior art, high boiling temperature stabilizers are ineffective because they concentrate in the evaporator and do not migrate with the heat transfer fluid to the condenser.
CA 02979946 2017-09-15 WO 2016/146940 PCT/FR2016/050577 3 There is therefore a need to provide stabilizers making it possible to limit or prevent the isomerization of HCF0-1233zdE into HCF0-1233zdZ, in particular in systems of vapor compression such as air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump and organic Rankine cycle systems, and especially systems with a flooded evaporator.

In particular, the evaporator used in the context of the invention can be an overheating evaporator or a flooded evaporator.
In a superheated evaporator, all of the heat transfer fluid is evaporated at the outlet of the evaporator, and the vapor phase is superheated.
In a flooded evaporator, the heat transfer fluid in liquid form does not evaporate completely.
A flooded evaporator comprises a liquid phase and vapor phase separator.
The invention is particularly useful when such an evaporator is used.
Indeed, the state of the art high boiling temperature stabilizers are ineffective when such an evaporator is employed, because they concentrate in the evaporator and do not migrate with the heat transfer fluid to the condenser.
The invention is also particularly useful when a high temperature exists at at least one point of the fluid circuit, and more particularly a temperature greater than or equal to 100 C, or 110 C, or 120 C, or 130 C, or at 140 C, or at 150 C, or at 160 C, or at 170 C, or at 180 C, or at 190 C, or at 200 C.
Indeed, it is under these conditions that HCF01233zdE is most likely to convert to HCF0-1233zdZ.
In particular, in air conditioning appliances, the general operating temperature is below 10000; but hot spots at the compressor outlet can reach temperatures in excess of 100°C, affecting the heat transfer fluid for a small proportion of its full circulation time (e.g. less than 1%).
In heat pumps, the condensation temperature can reach around 140°C.
In this case, the heat transfer fluid may be at a temperature of approximately 140 C over a significant proportion of its duration of complete circulation (for example approximately 50%).
In addition, hot spots between 150 and 200 C can also be observed at the compressor outlet. The impact of a long residence time at temperatures above 100° C. and the existence of points at temperatures which may approach 200° C. therefore require a stabilizer.
Preferably also, in the installation according to the invention, the temperature of the composition used as heat transfer fluid remains higher than the solidification temperature of the stabilizing compound, in order to avoid any deposit of solid matter in the circuit. .
The composition according to the invention may also be useful as a blowing agent, propellant (for example for an aerosol), cleaning agent or solvent, dielectric gas, in addition to its use as a heat transfer fluid. .
As a propellant, the composition according to the invention can be used alone or in combination with known propellants.
The propellant comprises, preferably consists of, a composition according to the invention.
The active substance to be sprayed can be mixed with the propellant and inert compounds, solvents or other additives, to form a composition to be sprayed.
Preferably, the composition to be sprayed is an aerosol.
As a blowing agent, the composition according to the invention may be included in a blowing composition, which preferably comprises one or more other compounds capable of reacting and forming a foam or cellular structure under appropriate conditions, as is known to those skilled in the art.
In particular, the invention proposes a process for preparing an expanded thermoplastic product comprising firstly the preparation of a polymeric expansion composition.
Typically, the polymer blowing agent composition is prepared by plasticizing a polymer resin and mixing the components of a blowing agent composition at an initial pressure.
Plasticization of the polymer resin can be effected by heat, by heating the polymer resin to soften it sufficiently to mix a blowing agent composition. Generally, the plasticization temperature is close to the glass transition temperature or the melting temperature for crystalline polymers.
Other uses of the composition according to the invention include uses as a solvent, cleaning agent or the like.
Examples include CA 02979946 2017-09-15 WO 2016/146940 PCT / FR2016/050577 13 steam degreasing, precision cleaning, electronic circuit cleaning, dry cleaning, abrasive cleaning, solvents for deposition of lubricants and release agents, and other solvent or surface treatments.
EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the invention without limiting it.
Example 1 (comparative) ¨ instability of HCF0-1233zdE in the absence of stabilizer The thermal stability tests of HCF0-1233zdE are carried out according to the ASHRAE 97-2007 standard entitled Sealed glass tube method to test the chemical stability of materials for use within refrigerant systems.
The compositions are determined by gas chromatograph on a CP-siI8-CB column.
A first series of tests is carried out at 150° C. for periods of between 10 minutes and 14 days.
The results show a slight formation of the HF0-1233zdZ isomer, reaching a content of 0.14% at 14 days.
A second series of tests is carried out at 200° C. for a period of 24 hours.
The results show a slight formation of the HCF01233zdZ isomer up to approximately 1%.
Finally, a third series of tests is carried out at 250° C. for a period of 24 hours as well.
The results show a formation of the HCF0-1233zdZ isomer of between 6 and 9%.
Example 2 (invention) ¨ stabilization of HCF0-1233zdE Thermal stability tests similar to those of example 1 are carried out, by adding 0.5% of stabilizer to HCF0-1233zdE (mass content relative to the sum of the stabilizer and HCF0-1233zdE).
The stabilizers tested are 2-methyl-but-2-ene (2m2b) and 3-methyl-but-1-ene (3m1b).
A first series of tests is carried out at 150° C. for a period of 14 days.
The tests with 3m1b show a formation of the HCF01233zdZ isomer of the order of 0.08% at the end of the period.
In the tests with 2m2b, no formation of HF0-1233zd-Z is measured.
A second series of tests is carried out at 200° C. for a period of 24 hours.
The tests with 3m1b show a slight formation of the isomer CA 02979946 2017-09-15 WO 2016/146940 PCT/FR2016/050577 14 HF0-1233zdZ of the order of 0.3%, and those with 2m2b show a formation of HCF0-1233zdZ of the order of 0.07% at the end of this period.
The following table summarizes the stabilization effect observed:
HCF0-1233zdE HCF0-1233zdE HCF0-1233zdE alone + 3m1b + 2m2b 14 days at 0.14% of 0.08% of HCF01233zdZ 150 C HCF0-1233zdZ HCF0-1233zdZ undetectable 24 hours at 1 `)/0 of HCF0- 0, 3% HCF0- 0.07% 200C 1233zdZ 1233zdZ HCF0-1233zdZ
