Description:Basis for IDLH Value: Data were inadequate to directly derive an IDLH value for bromine pentafluoride. For this reason, data from studies with chlorine pentafluoride were used to develop an IDLH value for bromine pentafluoride because their structures, react ion mechanisms, and potencies are assumed to be similar. Therefore, deriving an IDLH value based on the toxicity data for chlorine pentafluoride is appropriately health-protective [NIOSH 2016a].
