The Thermal Stability Difference between Tungsten Tetrabromide and Tungsten Pentabromide

Tungsten tetrabromide (WBr4) and tungsten pentabromide (WBr5) have some differences in thermal stability.

Tungsten tetrabromide is a relatively unstable compound, which is easy to decompose at high temperature. Specifically, when tungsten tetrabromide approaches or exceeds its decomposition temperature, it will undergo a thermal decomposition reaction, releasing bromine gas and tungsten. Therefore, the thermal stability of tungsten tetrabromide is low, and its application under high temperature conditions is limited.

In contrast, tungsten pentabromide is a relatively stable compound, which has good thermal stability at high temperatures. Tungsten pentabromide is able to maintain its structural integrity at relatively high temperatures without decomposition reactions. This makes tungsten pentabromide have wider application prospects in high temperature environments.
