Bromates, inorganic, n.o.s. is a colorless to light colored solid. Slightly soluble in water and denser than water. Contact may cause irritation to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion. Used to make other chemicals.

Slightly soluble in water.

Bromate ions are thermodynamically stable with respect to disproportionation

Slightly soluble in water.

Oxidizing Agents, Strong

Strong Oxidizing Agent

INORGANIC BROMATES are oxidizing agents. May cause ignition in contact with organic materials. A combination of finely divided aluminum with finely divided metal bromates can explode by heat, percussion, or friction [Mellor 2:310 1946-47].

SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

Combinations of finely divided bromate with combustible material or aluminum, arsenic, carbon, copper, phosphorus, or sulfur may explode on contact with heat or shock. Bromates may also ignite combustible materials.|Some mixtures of chlorates and bromates with combustible substances, including powdered metals, are likely to ignite by friction or percussion. Strong acids have a very violent action on these substances and many mixtures of chlorates and combustible substances are set on fire if acted on by strong sulfuric acid. /Clorates/|A combination of finely divided aluminum with finely divided bromates (also chlorates and iodates) of barium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, or zinc can be exploded by heat, percussion, and sometimes, light friction.|A combination of finely divided arsenic with finely divided bromates (also chlorates and iodates) of barium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, or zinc can be exploded by heat, percussion, and sometimes, by light friction.|For more Hazardous Reactivities and Incompatibilities (Complete) data for BROMATE COMPOUNDS (13 total), please visit the HSDB record page.

Excerpt from ERG Guide 141 [Oxidizers - Toxic]: These substances will accelerate burning when involved in a fire. May explode from heat or contamination. Some may burn rapidly. Some will react explosively with hydrocarbons (fuels). May ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may create fire or explosion hazard. (ERG, 2016)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 141 [Oxidizers - Toxic]: As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids. LARGE SPILL: Consider initial downwind evacuation for at least 100 meters (330 feet). FIRE: If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. (ERG, 2016)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 141 [Oxidizers - Toxic]: Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. SMALL DRY SPILL: With clean shovel, place material into clean, dry container and cover loosely; move containers from spill area. LARGE SPILL: Dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. (ERG, 2016)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 141 [Oxidizers - Toxic]: Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Wear chemical protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the manufacturer. It may provide little or no thermal protection. Structural firefighters' protective clothing will only provide limited protection. (ERG, 2016)|Personnel protection: ... Wear appropriate chemical protective gloves, boots and goggles.
