Described is a process for separating 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride from a mixture comprising 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane, 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride comprising: subjecting said 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane, 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride mixture to a distillation step, forming a column distillate composition comprising an azeotropic or near-azeotropic composition of said 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride, and a bottoms composition of 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane. The column distillate may optionally be made essentially free of 1,1,1,2,3-pentafluoropropane and the column bottoms composition may optionally be made essentially free of HF. Also described is a process for separating 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride from a mixture of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride. Also described are azeotropic and azeotrope-like compositions comprising 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoropropane and hydrogen fluoride.
