To provide a solvent composition in which various organic substances are soluble, and which has no adverse effect on global environment. A solvent composition comprising 1-chloro-2,3,3,4,4,5,5-heptafluoro-1-pentene, a cleaning method using the solvent composition, a method for producing a substrate with a coating film, and a heat transfer fluid.

This invention relates to azeotrope-like compositions, methods and systems having utility in numerous applications, and in particular, uses for azeotrope-like compositions comprising effective amounts of the compound cis-1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene (Z-HF0-1336mzzm), which has the following structure: ##STR00001##
and another material selected from the group consisting of water, fluoroketones, alcohols, hydrochlorofluoroolefins, and combinations of two or more thereof. These compositions may be used in a wide variety of applications such as, blowing agents, refrigerants, heating agents, power cycle agents, cleaning agents, aerosol propellants, sterilization agents, lubricants, flavor and fragrance extractants, flammability reducing agents, and flame suppression agents.

The present invention relates to a cooling mixture comprising a fluorinated compound and a non-fluorinated compound, wherein the fluorinated compound is a hydrofluoroether and the non-fluorinated compound includes a carbonyl function, which has a flash point no lower than 23 C. and which is characterised by having low relative volatility. The present invention likewise relates to the use of such a mixture as a coolant in a heat-exchange device.

There is provided a working fluid for heat cycle that uses (Z)-1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropane (HCFO-1224yd(Z)) which has a less impact on the ozone layer, has a less impact on global warming, and has excellent cycle performance, the working fluid for heat cycle having sufficiently ensured stability and having high productivity. The working fluid for heat cycle contains HCFO-1224yd(Z) and an impurity, wherein the impurity includes a specific trace component, and a total content ratio of the trace component to a total amount of the working fluid is less than 1.5 mass %.
