Infobox references

Ammonium perbromate is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula NH4BrO4. It shares similar properties to ammonium perchlorate, but is substantially more difficult to isolate, and has a complex mechanism of decomposition.[2][1][3]

Properties

Ammonium perbromate is stable at room temperature, and has solubilities which are similar to ammonium perchlorate. Ammonium perbromate is much less hygroscopic in comparison to ammonium perchlorate, absorbing roughly 1/6 as much water when maintained in an atmosphere with high humidity.[1]
