Nickel Bromide Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- nickel(II) Bromide
- NiBr2
Nickel bromide supplier for plating, electronics materials, catalyst and laboratory buyers in Malaysia. Written elsewhere as nickel(II) bromide or NiBr2, it is the bromide salt of nickel and reaches most buyers as a yellow-brown hygroscopic powder on an anhydrous basis. The green hydrated salt is quoted separately when the process names it.
Technical grade serves specialty plating baths, electronics materials processing and general industrial chemistry, while reagent grade covers analytical and synthesis work with tighter impurity control. Grades separate on assay and impurity limits rather than on appearance alone.
Away from the plating bath, nickel bromide is a precursor in nickel catalyst preparation and in the manufacture of other nickel compounds. The salt is hygroscopic and water-soluble, so it stays sealed until it is dissolved. Other nickel salts such as nickel chloride and nickel sulphate are separate products.
State the form, grade, assay or nickel content basis, impurity limits, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, and supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Nickel Bromide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical grade nickel bromide | yellow-brown hygroscopic powder, anhydrous basis | — | Nickel ion source and bromide salt for specialty plating baths, electronics materials processing and general industrial chemistry. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Nickel bromide hydrate | green crystalline solid | — | Processes and formulations that specify the hydrated salt. Quoted as a separate material from the anhydrous form. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Reagent grade nickel bromide | yellow-brown hygroscopic powder or green crystalline solid, as specified | — | Analytical work, standard solution preparation and laboratory synthesis calling for tighter impurity control than a technical grade. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Nickel Bromide applications
Safety and handling
Keep sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials, and protect from moisture because the salt is hygroscopic. Follow the safety information supplied with the quoted grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about nickel bromide
Which form of nickel bromide is normally supplied?
The anhydrous salt is a yellow-brown hygroscopic powder, while the hydrate is a green crystalline solid. They handle differently, so state which form the process specification names and each is quoted on its own basis.
What is nickel bromide used for?
It serves as a nickel ion source and bromide salt in specialty plating baths and electronics materials processing, as a precursor for nickel catalysts and other nickel compounds, and as a laboratory reagent.
Is nickel bromide the same as nickel chloride or nickel sulphate?
No. They are different nickel salts, and the anion changes bath and process chemistry, so each is ordered by name rather than substituted for another. State the exact salt and grade your specification requires.
What specifications matter for a nickel bromide enquiry?
Include the form, grade, assay or nickel content basis, impurity limits, quantity and delivery location. For plating use, send the bath specification so assay and impurity limits can be matched.
What affects a nickel bromide quotation?
Compare offers on the same anhydrous or hydrate basis, assay or nickel content basis and impurity limits. The required quantity, pack format and delivery location complete the commercial requirement, and the quotation states its validity period.
