Hydrobromic Acid 48% | Aqueous HBr – Strong Acid for Synthesis and Processing
Our Hydrobromic Acid 48% delivers consistent aqueous hydrogen bromide strength for industrial bromination, pharmaceutical synthesis, and specialty manufacturing. This CAS 10035-10-6 solution maintains 47.0–49.0% HBr by weight with ≤0.01% chloride and ≤0.001% sulfate—the purity your reactions require.
As a strong mineral acid with superior nucleophilic bromide ion availability, HBr 48% serves as an efficient brominating agent for alcohol substitution, alkene addition, and aromatic ring bromination. It functions as a pH adjustment agent in pharmaceutical manufacturing, a metal surface etchant for semiconductor processing, and a reaction medium for alkyl bromide production.
Available Concentrations: 48% standard, 62% fuming HBr (custom dilutions on request).
Packaging: 300kg/DRUM polyethylene-lined steel drums; IBC totes with corrosion-resistant fittings. Vent caps for pressure relief.
