Sodium bromide is an inorganic chemical compound that is commonly employed in the organic production of bromide compounds. It acts as a source of bromide nucleophiles to obtain alkyl bromide from alkyl chloride via the Finkelstein reaction under suitable conditions. Additionally, it is also utilized in the preparation of the photosensitive salt, silver bromide, which is further used in photography.

Sodium Bromide also plays a role in the medical sector, as it is used as a sedative, hypnotic, or anticonvulsant in the medical sector. Furthermore, it is also utilized as an antiseptic material, detergent, and as reagent in pharmaceutical preparations. It also plays a paramount role in the fluids for oil and gas drilling extraction. In addition, it is also employed as a pesticide used in formulating liquid sodium bromide for controlling bacterial, algal, and fungal slimes in industrial water treatment.

The market for sodium bromide is primarily driven by its extensive usage in fluids for oil and gas drilling extraction and as a pesticide for controlling bacterial, algal, and fungal slimes in industrial water treatment, which propels its market expansion and promotes its demand in the oil & gas drilling and water treatment industries. It is often utilized in the preparation of the photosensitive salt, silver bromide, which is further utilized in the photography industry, which further enhances its market growth.

Additionally, it is used as a source of bromine in the production of organic bromine compounds and as a sedative and antiseptic material and reagent in pharmaceutical preparations, which notably accelerates its demand in the chemical manufacturing, medical, and pharmaceutical industries. Furthermore, the availability and cost of production of sodium bromide's raw materials, which include (sodium hydroxide, bromine, etc.), sodium bromide market prices, storage and handling requirements, transportation and logistics, quality and purity of sodium bromide, and sustainability practices, etc. affect the global industrial sodium bromide procurement.

Raw Material for Sodium Bromide Production

According to the Sodium bromide manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Sodium bromide production include Sodium Hydroxide-Bromine.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Bromide

The extensive Sodium bromide production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production via Bromination: In this process, sodium hydroxide undergoes bromination where bromine reacts with sodium hydroxide to produce sodium bromide as the product.

Sodium Bromide's molecular formula is NaBr. It is an inorganic compound and is highly volatile. It is a white crystalline solid, and its appearance resembles sodium chloride. This compound has a wide range of applications in various chemical and pharmaceutical sectors. However, it is not naturally found in rocks and other minerals.

It can be obtained from ocean water along with other halides, like iodides as well as chlorides. It exhibits the anticonvulsant properties of bromide salts. Additionally, it is the most commonly occurring salt of hydrobromic acid. It is a compound that is both colorless and odorless. This compound has two units of covalent bonds that have a heat capacity of 51.4 J/mol.k. It is easier to dissolve this compound in water.
