Hydrogen bromide Cenke

1. Physical Properties
The pure substance is a colorless, transparent, fuming liquid; the industrial-grade product, which contains impurities, is pale yellow and has a strong, pungent acidic odor. It is completely miscible with water, ethanol, and acetic acid. It is highly volatile and forms acid mist in humid air.
2. Chemical Properties
(1) It is a strong inorganic acid with a pKa of -9. It is more acidic than hydrochloric acid and is extremely corrosive, capable of corroding most metals to form bromides.
(2) It exhibits strong reducing properties and is easily oxidized by oxidizing agents such as oxygen and chlorine to release elemental bromine; it gradually discolors when exposed to light or heat.
(3) It reacts with bases, carbonates, and active metals in typical strong acid reactions, and can also participate in organic reactions such as the substitution of hydroxyl groups in alcohols and the addition to alkenes.
3. Main Applications
(1) Chemical Industry: Serves as a basic raw material for the production of various inorganic bromides and organic brominated compounds, and is used as a catalyst for alkylation and isomerization reactions.
(2) Pharmaceutical Industry: Used in the synthesis of anesthetics and sedatives, as well as in the preparation of various hydrobromide drug intermediates.
(3) Other Fields: Used as an aromatization catalyst in the petroleum industry, and also as an analytical reagent and a leaching solvent for metal ores.

Grades and Specifications: Industrial grade; custom specifications available.

The product strictly complies with the GB/T 2961-2014 national standard, accompanied by a complete set of MSDS, commodity inspection reports, and hazardous packaging certificates, and meets EU REACH import and export requirements. Standard packaging includes 200 kg galvanized closed-top steel drums and 1,000 L IBC containers. For large volumes, bulk transport via tank containers is available. Storing and transporting the product in a sealed, light-protected environment effectively delays oxidation and discoloration. Supply is stable and ample, supporting full-container and consolidated shipments for international trade, and meeting global chemical procurement and custom fine chemical production needs.
