Tungsten Hexabromide (1)

Tungsten hexabromide is a blue-black needles crystal, its physical properties are as follows: chemical formula: WBr6, molecular weight: 663.264, relative density: 6.9, melting point: 309 ℃, boiling point: 327 ℃, soluble in carbon disulfide, diethyl ether , insoluble in cold water, hot water decomposition. Tungsten hexabromide easily hydrolyze into tungstic acid in humid air, and decomposes into pentabromide tungsten and bromine. CAS registry number: 13701-86-5. WBr6 can produce tungsten tetrabromide and tungsten pentabromide by disproportionation reaction. It is commonly used in the synthesis tungsten organic compounds.
Tungsten hexabromide should be sealed in storage container, placed in a cool, ventilated, and dry area which has safeguard procedures and away from fire and heat. Besides tungsten hexabromide should be stored separately with oxidant, avoid mixing storage. Keep away from food, drink and animal feed. At the same time the storage room should be equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment and other suitable material for leakage collect.
If tungsten hexabromide leaked first to remove the source of fire to prevent fire or explosion, and use any method to collect leakage with dry media to collect, prevented entering drains. Using water and detergent clean the floor and all the things which contaminated by tungsten hexabromide.
