Electronegativity differences of <0.5 indicates a nonpolar covalent bond. Electronegativity differences between 0.5 and 1.6 indicate a polar covalent bond. Electronegativity differences >2.0 indicates an ionic bond. For electronegativity differences between 1.6 and 2.0, if the bond involves a metal, it is considered to be ionic. If the bond is between two nonmetals, the bond is considered to be polar covalent.
