Abstract

A lubricant and combination lubricant and refrigerant composition for use in a refrigerating machine in which a substitute freon refrigerant, which lubricant contains a polymer of a fumaric ester or a fumaric ester and a copolymerizable alkylene, and optionally contains an organic carboxylic ester or a polyalkylene glycol with a kinematic viscosity of 2 to 30 cSt. The lubricant is compatible with substitute freon refrigerants such as hydrogen-containing halogenated hydrocarbons, particularly R 134a, in a wide temperature range, has a high viscosity index, is thermally and chemically stable, and has an excellent lubricity.
