Potassium Bromide IR Grade

Product Description:Potassium Bromide IR Grade

Potassium Bromide (KBr) IR Grade is an ultra-high purity crystalline salt specifically refined for infrared (IR) spectroscopy and analytical laboratory applications. It is a white, odorless, and highly transparent solid that transmits infrared light over a wide spectral range, making it ideal for preparing optical pellets and windows in FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) analysis.
Due to its chemical stability and low hygroscopicity, Potassium Bromide IR Grade ensures accurate and reproducible spectroscopic results in research and quality control laboratories.
