Sodium bromide powder is NaBr in the form of white crystalline solid, and it is used alone or with sodium chloride or zinc bromide to formulate workover and completion fluids whose densities vary from 8.4 lb/gal (1007 kg/m3) to 12.5 lb/gal(1498 kg/m3).
What makes this oilfield chemical different from multivalent compounds is that it won’t generate precipitation when there are high concentrations of carbonate ions, bicarbonate ions or sulfate ions in formations or formation water.

Safety and Handling
For safety considerations, personal protective equipment is highly recommended and actually it is a must. Before work, please refer to the precautions illustrated in the MSDS.
Packaging and Storage
Our sodium bromide powder is packed in 25kg PP woven bag or 1MT bulk bag.
The container should be closed, and then placed at a dry, well-ventilated area that is away from heat, sparks, flames and incompatible materials. For palletizing, banding, shrink-wrapping and stacking operations, please follow safe warehousing practices.
