HBR 62%
HBR 62% is used as a bromine source in a variety of chemical syntheses for high-level applications, including pharma applications, fragrances and flavors. A strong acid in an aqueous solution, HBR 62% can also be used as a hydrobromination agent in a broad range of organic processes (for pharma and agro applications).
Packaging: Hydrobromic acid is supplied in the following packaging:
- Drums
- Intermediate Bulk Containers – IBCs
- Bulk Truck Loads
Flammability and Exclusivity: Hydrobromic acid is non-flammable and non-explosive. At high temperature it will release toxic fumes of hydrogen bromide.
Toxicity: LD50 (inhalation rate): HBr 100% 2,858 ppm/1h. Hydrobromic acid is corrosive to eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Actual inhalation may produce delayed pulmonary edema. Direct contact results in serious corneal and skin burns.
Storage & Handling: Keep containers tightly closed and protected from physical damage. Use fluorinated vinyl chloride resins or polyethylene glass-coated equipment. Avoid breathing vapors and any other bodily contact.
Store in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials.
