About Aluminium bromide

Aluminium bromide is a main-group metal compound carrying the CAS registry number 7727-15-3 with a typical assay of ≥95%. Its molecular formula is AlBr3 and its molecular weight is 266.69 g/mol. The IUPAC name is tribromoalumane. It is also known as Aluminic bromide or Aluminium(III) bromide.

The material typically appears as white to orange to yellow powder and chunks. Key physical data: a melting point of 94-98 °C. Keep the container tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dry area. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

Typical applications include catalysis and materials research. Typical end-use sectors are academic and industrial research.

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Aluminium bromide in 100 g, 500 g and 25 kg packs, each shipped with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), and exports worldwide.
