Sodium bromide is an inorganic compound with the formula NaBr. It is a high-melting white, crystalline solid that resembles sodium chloride. It is a widely used source of bromide ions and has many applications.
Applications
Sodium bromide is the most useful inorganic bromide in the industry. It is also used as a catalyst in TEMPO-mediated oxidation reactions.
Disinfectant
Sodium bromide is used in conjunction with chlorine as a disinfectant for hot tubs and swimming pools.
Petroleum industry
Because of its high solubility in water (943.2 g/L or 9.16 mol/L, at 25 °C), sodium bromide is used to prepare dense drilling fluids used in oil wells to compensate a possible overpressure arising in the fluid column and to counteract the associated trend to blow out. The presence of the sodium cation also causes the bentonite added to the drilling fluid to swell, while the high ionic strength induces the bentonite flocculation.
Sodium Bromide Uses
Used as a disinfectant for hot tubs and swimming pools
Used to prepare dense fluids that are used in oil wells.
The photosensitive salt, silver bromide, is prepared using sodium bromide
Used as a catalyst in TEMPO-mediated oxidation reactions
Sodium bromide, also known as Sedoneural, can be used as a hypnotic, as an anticonvulsant, and as a sedative. In the field of medicine, it is widely used as an anticonvulsant and a sedative in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
