Application

Anhydrous crystalline zinc bromide is used for the synthesis of ZnS based composite semiconductor photocatalyst. It is also widely studied to understand the structure-property relationships in zinc bromide and hence predict its different applications. Zinc bromide is a widely used catalyst for stereochemical reactions and is also an important brominating agent.
