Hydrobromic acid is widely used in the production of inorganic bromides, such as zinc bromide, calcium bromide, sodium bromide, and potassium bromide, which are essential in various industrial processes including pharmaceuticals and medicine. It serves as a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly in alkylation, polymerization reactions, and the production of drugs and agrochemicals. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is employed to manufacture sedatives and other bromine-containing drugs. In the electronics industry, it is used for etching and cleaning circuit boards. Additionally, it is utilized in the extraction of certain metals, as a reagent in laboratories for analytical purposes to detect specific substances, and in the petroleum industry as a completion fluid in oil and gas wells to enhance production.
