Bromoform
Description
Bromoform (CAS 75-25-2 ), also known as methyl tribromide, is a dense, halogenated solvent used across industrial processing and specialty chemical manufacturing. Its high bromine content makes it effective as a flame retardant intermediate. It is also utilized as a heavy-medium separation agent in mineral and materials processing. In textile and leather processing, it functions as a solvent and density separation medium for fiber and material grading. Building and construction applications utilize it as a flame retardant component, where its bromine loading contributes to fire suppression in treated materials. This makes it a vital component for safety standards. Pharmaceutical manufacturing uses this chemical as a synthesis intermediate and, in controlled formulations, as a preservative or biocide active. It is essential for various specialized chemical reactions. Paper production processes have employed it for foam control and as a processing solvent where halogenated media are specified. It ensures consistency and quality during the manufacturing of paper products. The product is supplied as a liquid, typically in drums or bulk containers suited to halogenated solvent handling requirements. Technical grade is the most common commercial specification for these applications. Purity levels are generally at 99% or higher for industrial and synthesis applications. Pharmaceutical-grade material is available to USP or equivalent specifications for regulated manufacturing use. Contact us for supply of Bromoform Request Quote
