Sodium bromide is used in pharmaceutical applications, used in photographic processing and chemical intermediate for production of chemicals and bromides. It is widely used as an anticonvulsant. Also used for the preparation of drilling fluids, completion fluids and drilling muds formulations.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications
Sodium bromide is used in pharmaceutical applications, used in photographic processing and chemical intermediate for production of chemicals and bromides. It is widely used as an anticonvulsant. Also used for the preparation of drilling fluids, completion fluids and drilling muds formulations.

Solubility
Soluble in water, soluble in alcohol.

Notes
It is thermally and chemically stable. Hygroscopic. Sodium bromide is non-flammable and when strongly heated it may emit bromine fumes.
