Abstract

Mixtures of the compound 1,1,1,2,2,5,5,5-octafluoro-4-trifluoromethylpentane with alcohols, ethers, esters, ketones, nitrogen-containing organic compounds, and halogenated hydrocarbons are disclosed; as is a process for cleaning a solid surface which comprises treating the surface with said mixtures. Binary mixtures of 1,1,1,2,2,5,5,5-octafluoro-4-trifluoromethylpentane with about 5 to 13 weight percent methanol, with about 2 to 10 weight percent ethanol, with about 3 to 11 weight percent isopropanol, with about 50 to 58 weight percent dichloromethane, and with about 1 to 9 weight percent acetonitrile, are disclosed as azeotrope or azeotrope-like compositions and are particularly suited for use where solvent recovery and reuse is practiced.
