HYDROGEN BROMIDE (ANHYDROUS) Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Anhydrous hydrogen bromide is a colorless gas with a sharp, pungent odor, used in various industrial processes. It is highly soluble in water, forming hydrobromic acid. Anhydrous HBr is utilized in organic synthesis, the production of bromine-containing compounds, and as a catalyst in chemical reactions. It is also used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and flame retardants. Despite its industrial importance, anhydrous HBr poses significant health risks, including severe respiratory, skin, and eye irritation. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are crucial to prevent exposure and ensure safe usage.
