Chemical properties Potassium bromide is a typical ionic compound which is completely ionized and neutral after being dissolved in water.Commonly used to provide bromide ions -- Silver bromide for photographic use can be produced by the following important reactions: KBr(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgBr(s) + KNO3(aq) The bromide ion Br- in aqueous solution can form complexes with some metal halides, such as: KBr(aq) + CuBr2(aq) → K2[CuBr4](aq)Product detailsPotassium Bromide Specifications:

Preparation Methods1) Electrolysis Method Will by potassium bromide and potassium hydroxide synthesis with distilled water to dissolve into the electrolyte, the first batch of crude products, electrolytic after 24 h after every 12 h takes a coarse, the coarse product are washed with distillation hydrolysis after removal of KBR, add a small amount of potassium hydroxide adjust pH value of 8, insulation filter after 0.5 h, will clarify the filtrate in the crystallizer and mid-cooling to room temperature, crystallization, separation, drying, potassium bromate was made by the product. 2) Chlorine oxidation Method After the reaction of lime milk and bromide, chlorine gas was added for chlorine oxidation reaction, and the reaction ended when the pH value reached 6~7.After slag removal, the filtrate is evaporated.Barium chloride solution is added to react to produce barium bromate precipitation, and the filtered precipitation is suspended with water to maintain a certain temperature and added to potassium carbonate for double decomposition reaction. Crude potassium bromate is washed with a small amount of distilled water for several times, then filtered, evaporated, cooled, crystallized, separated, dried and crushed to prepare edible potassium bromate products. 3) Bromo-Potassium Hydroxide Method With industrial bromine and potassium hydroxide as raw materials, potassium hydroxide was dissolved into solution with 1.4 times the mass of water, and bromine was added under constant stirring.When bromide is added to a certain amount, white crystals are precipitated out to get potassium bromate crude. Continue adding bromine until the liquid is pink.At the same time as adding bromine, cold water is constantly added to the solution to prevent the loss of bromine volatilization due to high temperature.Recrystallized repeatedly, filtered, dried, then dissolved with deionized water, and added a small amount of potassium hydroxide to remove the excess bromine during synthesis, recrystallized once, finally took out the crystallization, dried, finished product.ApplicationsAsia Africa Australasia Europe Middle East North America Central/South AmericaMain Export Markets1)Photosensitive materials industry used in the manufacture of photosensitive film, developer, negative thickening agent, toner and color photo bleaching agent; 2)Used as a nerve tranquilizer in medicine (three bromine tablets); 3)Used for chemical analysis reagents, spectroscopic and infrared transmission, making special soap, as well as engraving, lithography and other aspects; 4) It is also used as an analytical reagent.Packaging General packaging specification: 25KG,50KG;500KG;1000KG Jumbo Bag; Packaging Size : Jumbo bag size: 95 * 95 * 125-110 * 110 * 130; 25kg bag size: 50 * 80-55 * 85 Small bag is a double-layer bag,and the outer layer have a coating film ,which can effectively prevent moisture absorption.

Please seek medical treatment immediately.If inhaled, vomiting may occur. Remove the patient to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention.If splashed into the eyes, immediately wash with plenty of fresh water for 20min;Skin in contact with potassium bromide should also be rinsed with plenty of water.Packaging Storage and TransportationIt should be sealed dry and kept away from light.Packed in PP bags lined with PE bags ,20kg, 25kg or 50kg net each.  Should be stored in a ventilated, dry warehouse. The packing should be complete and protected from moisture and light. It must be protected from rain and sun during transportation. Handle with care during loading and unloading to prevent packing damage. In case of fire, sand and various fire extinguishers can be used to put out the fire.
