Hydrobromic Acid Market Analysis
The global hydrobromic acid market size reached 1,365.8 Thousand Tons in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 2,448.2 Thousand Tons, at a projected CAGR of 6.70% during 2023-2032.
- The rising utilization of hydrobromic acid in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals is impelling the growth of the market. It is added to the numerous bromine compounds used in medicines, including sedatives, antihistamines, and anesthetics. It is also employed in the manufacturing of bulk drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). APIs are crucial for high-quality drug treatments related to the central nervous system (CNS), oncology, cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, pulmonology, gastroenterology, nephrology, ophthalmology, and endocrinology. According to the research published by the Lancet in 2024, the number of individuals living with or dying from nervous system illnesses has increased drastically over the past three decades, with 3.4 billion people, or 43% of the world's population, impacted in 2021.
- The growing geriatric population that is susceptible to several age-related ailments is driving the demand for hydrobromic acid in pharmaceuticals. As per a report presented by World Health Organization (WHO) in 2022, 1 in 6 individuals worldwide will be 60 or older by 2030. The number of individuals in the world who are 60 years of age or older is predicted to double (2.1 billion) by 2050. It is projected that between 2020 and 2050, the number of people 80 years of age or older will triple, reaching 426 million.
- In the chemical industry, hydrobromic acid is widely used as a reagent to produce inorganic bromides, such as zinc, sodium, and calcium bromides. These substances have a wide range of applications, including flame retardants, photographic chemicals, and intermediates in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Additionally, it makes it easier to produce alkyl bromides by radical reactions, which can be employed as anesthetics, intermediates, or solvents. Based on the data provided by the IMARC group, the size of the global market for flame retardants was $9.8 billion in US dollars in 2023. The market will increase at 5.8% CAGR from 2024 to 2032, reaching US$ 16.6 billion.
Hydrobromic Acid News

Product Description
Hydrobromic acid is a diatomic molecule made up of hydrogen and bromine that is commonly found in industrial settings as a gas or in aqueous solution, with a strong, characteristic odor. It is mostly generated by reacting hydrogen (H2) directly with bromine (Br2) or by dissolving bromide salts in water and adding a strong acid, such as sulfuric acid.
It makes the synthesis of brominated organic molecules simple and effective, which lowers the complexity and expenses associated with producing pharmaceuticals and industrial goods. It is employed to create clear-brine drilling fluids for the purpose of extracting oil and natural gas, which is essential for cooling the drill bit and maintaining pressure stability during drilling operations. It is also used to make fire-retardant compounds and catalyzes the polymerization of certain polymers. Additionally, in metallurgy, hydrobromic acid helps to remove oxides and other impurities from metal surfaces to clean and purify the metals for further processing.
