Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 HFChydrofluorocarbon; a chemical compound inwhich the compound molecule is comprised exclusively ofhydrogen and fluorine and carbon atoms.3.1.

8、2 HFC-227eathe compound 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane; CF3CHFCF3.3.1.2.1 DiscussionThe terminology system for fluorine-containing compounds (described in detail in ASRE Stan-dard 34) provides a convenient means to reference the structureof individual compounds. By definition, the first digit of t

9、henumbering system represents one less than the number ofcarbon atoms in the compound molecule; the second digit, onemore than the number of hydrogen atoms in the compoundmolecule; and the third digit, the number of fluorine atoms inthe compound molecule. For molecules containing three car-bon atoms

10、, two appended letters are added to indicate thesymmetry of the molecule. The first appended letter indicatesthe substitution on the central (C2) carbon; for example, thesubstitution CHF is assigned the designation “e.” The secondappended letter indicates the substitution at the C1 and C3carbons; fo

11、r example, identical substitution on the C1 and C3carbons are assigned the designation “a.” For example, thedesignation HFC-227ea indicates three carbon atoms (2 + 1),one hydrogen atom (21), and seven fluorine atoms; thedesignation “e” indicates that the central carbon is substitutedas CHF, and the

12、designation“ a” indicates that the substitutionon Carbons C1 and C3 is identical, that is, the structure isCF3CHFCF3.4. Material Requirements4.1 Type IMixtures of HFC-227ea and Nitrogen:4.1.1 The nitrogen (N2) partial pressure shall be such thatthe safe working pressure of the receiving vessel is no

13、texceeded. To prevent excessive pressure, the fill density ofHFC-227ea within a container should not exceed that needed toachieve complete filling of the container at the maximumenvisaged storage temperature. For example, for the U.S. DOT4BA500 cylinder, the nitrogen partial pressure shall not excee

14、d21.8 bar at 21C (316 psig at 70F) for a 1150-kg/m3(72-lb/ft3)fill density (yielding a total pressure of 25.8 bar at 21C (360psig at 70F). For this example, the safe working pressure ofthe 4BA500 cylinder is not exceeded for temperatures below54C (130F).1This specification is under the jurisdiction
