Description

Graphite Bromide is an intercalation compound where bromine atoms are inserted between the layers of graphite. This material is valued for its unique electrical and thermal properties, which are significantly altered from those of pure graphite. It serves as a critical precursor and functional material in advanced material science and electronics. Key industrial users include researchers and manufacturers in the development of battery anodes, conductive composites, and specialty lubricants.

Application

• Precursor material for the synthesis of graphene and other graphite intercalation compounds (GICs).
• Research and development of novel anode materials for lithium-ion and other advanced battery systems.
• Component in the formulation of specialty conductive polymers and composites for electromagnetic shielding.
• Additive for high-performance solid lubricants and greases under demanding conditions.
• Chemical reagent in organic synthesis and catalysis research.
• Raw material for producing modified graphite with tailored electrical conductivity.
• Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying charge-transfer complexes and layered material properties.

Quality Control

Our Graphite Bromide is produced and handled under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Each lot undergoes rigorous quality testing to verify key parameters such as bromine content, stage index, and purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Due to its hygroscopic and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store this material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) for long-term preservation of quality. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize exposure to moisture and air.
