About Potassium bromate, ACS reagent, ≥99.8%

Potassium bromate is an alkali metal compound in ACS grade carrying the CAS registry number 7758-01-2 at a purity of ≥99.8%. Formula BrKO3, molecular weight 167.0 g/mol. It is also known as Potassium tetrahydroborate or potassium trioxobromate.

The material typically appears as a white crystalline powder to powder. Key physical data: a melting point of 500 °C (dec.) and a density of 1.18 g/mL at 25 °C. Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

Typical applications include analytical determinations and oxidation reactions. It is used across academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 50 g, 250 g and 5 x 1 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
