#BromineMarket The organobromine industry controls the largest proportion of the global bromine market due to its extensive use in the manufacturing of brominated flame retardants, pesticides, fumigants, and biocides for the treatment of water. Most organobromine compounds are nonpolar, just like other organohalide compounds. Bromine is more electronegative than carbon. Because the carbon in a carbon-bromine bond is electrophilic as a result, alkyl bromides are alkylating substances.

#BromineMarket Bromine's main market has been the flame retardant market. Since they primarily work in the vapour phase by inhibiting the flame chemistry, halogen-containing flame retardants are not polymer-specific like phosphorus-containing flame retardants. 9-Bromine-containing substances prevail because they are not only more effective than their chlorine-containing counterparts, but also because most organobromine compounds include a significant mass percentage of bromine due to its high atomic weight.
