About

IDLH Value: 12 ppm (45 mg/m3). This IDLH Value Profile presents (1) a brief summary of technical data associated with acute inhalation exposures to ClF3, and (2) the rationale behind the immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) value for ClF3. IDLH values are developed on the basis of the scientific rationale and logic outlined in the NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin (CIB) 66: Derivation of Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) Values.
