bromine compounds

Inorganic bromine compounds adopt a variety of oxidation states from 1 to +7.

Outside coatings and cracks inside the rocks suggest water deposited minerals, maybe bromine compounds.

Certain hydrocarbon bromine compounds gave good results.

Examples of mutagens are Ionizing radiation, many bromine compounds, benzene.

As a result, many industrial bromine compounds are no longer manufactured, are being restricted, or scheduled for phasing out.

Bromine compounds are chemical compounds that have bromine ions in them.

Bromine compounds are still used for certain purposes, however, including in well-drilling fluids, in film photography, and as an intermediate in the manufacture of organic chemicals.

Alkyl bromine compounds are often alkylating agents and the brominated aromatic derivatives are implicated as hormone disruptors.

Temperature over the Antarctic affects the formation of polar stratospheric clouds, which accelerate the destruction of stratospheric ozone by human-produced chlorine and bromine compounds.

Another mechanism for concentrating highly-soluble bromine compounds is frost deposition at night that would form very thin films of water that would concentrate bromine in certain spots.

In spas, the high water temperatures render chlorinated water purification and buffering compounds unstable, and bromine compounds may improve the life of the free-halogen antimicrobial.

Halons, manmade bromine compounds used in fire extinguishers, are far less concentrated in the atmosphere than chlorofluorocarbons, which are used in air-conditioners and aerosol sprays.

Also, from direct measurements over Antarctica, a column ozone level of less than 220 Dobson Units is a result of the ozone loss from chlorine and bromine compounds.

Adirondack has been very slightly altered, probably by thin films of water because they are softer and contain veins of light colored material that may be bromine compounds, as well as coatings or rinds.

Temperatures that fell to minus 108 degrees Fahrenheit facilitated the formation of polar stratospheric clouds that in the presence of chlorine and bromine compounds, brought about the severe ozone destruction, the meteorological agency said.

Because of the sensitivity of the Antarctic stratosphere ozone layer to depletion from human-produced chlorine and bromine compounds, the ozone profile measurements should provide sensitive indicators of ozone recovery as the ozone destroying compounds decrease.
