Colorless fuming liquid with strong pungent odor. The relative density was 852(15 ℃). Melting Point -41.5 °c. Boiling point 173.2 °c. Refractive index 1.6903(20 degrees C). Vapor pressure 1.333 (47.8 C). The heat of vaporization was 38.8 kJ/mol. Dry stable, when there is water can be decomposed into phosphorous acid and hydrobromic acid. It decomposes rapidly when exposed to water and alcohol. Soluble in acetone, carbon disulfide, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride.
A reaction was carried out using red phosphorus and liquid bromine as raw materials and phosphorus tribromide as a solvent to obtain phosphorus tribromide.
organic synthesis is used as brominating agent, reducing agent, for the analysis of sugar and oxygen.
risk code: acid corrosion product. GB8.1 class 810560 UN N0.1808; IMDGCODE page 8209, class 8.1. With glass bottles, each bottle of net weight 500g, 25kg, and then concentrated in the wood box liner. There are obvious "drugs" and "corrosion products" signs on the outside of the bottle and the box. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse. Avoid rain and humidity; Store and transport Isolation of combustible and alkali materials. Light load and light discharge during handling to prevent damage to the container. Fire-fighting personnel must wear acid-resistant protective clothing in case of fire. Cement, dry sand and dry powder shall be used for fire fighting. Water shall not be used for fire fighting. Toxic. Ingestion or inhalation of dust and fluids can lead to severe poisoning. It reacts strongly with water to generate hydrogen bromide and phosphorous acid, which release irritating vapor and cause corrosive burns. Vapor and liquid can seriously stimulate the eyes, mucous membranes, skin and respiratory system, causing burns, often inhaled low concentrations of vapor can damage the respiratory tract. See phosphorus trichloride for others.
