- Since the essential novelty of ghg's invention seems to be the use of
- isobutane to act both as a refrigerant and as a solvent for dissolving
- lubricant oils in HCFC refrigerants, I wonder whether this same technique
- could be used to dissolve similar refrigerating oils in R-134a to get
- around the problem with lubricants compatible with that refrigerant.
- Have you ever tried that, ghg?
