Technical profile of 1,3-Dibromo-5,5-Dimethylhydantoin, a high-purity raw chemical material supplied by Triveni Chemicals for industrial manufacturing and laboratory synthesis.


1,3-Dibromo-5,5-Dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH) is a brominated hydantoin compound widely used as a disinfectant and oxidizing agent. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water and stable under dry conditions, but releases active bromine in aqueous environments. It has a strong oxidizing nature and acts as a controlled source of bromine.
It is extensively used in water treatment applications such as cooling towers, swimming pools, and industrial water systems for disinfection and microbial control. In the paper and textile industries, it is used as a bleaching and biocidal agent. It is also applied in oilfield water treatment and as an intermediate in chemical synthesis. Additionally, it is used in household and industrial cleaning products for its antimicrobial properties. Its effectiveness as a stable bromine donor makes it valuable in sanitation and oxidation processes.
