ANTIMONY PENTAFLUORIDES Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Antimony pentafluorides refer to compounds containing antimony and fluorine, typically in the form of SbF5. These compounds are used as powerful Lewis acid catalysts in organic synthesis and in the production of certain fluorinated compounds. They are highly corrosive and toxic, posing significant health risks upon exposure. Proper handling, storage, and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
