Description

Methyl bromide is a colorless liquid or gas with practically no odor. It is a poisonous gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. At high concentrations, it has a chloroform-like odor. Detection of lower concentrations is often facilitated by a warning odorant, chloropicrin, which is added by the manufacturer.
Methyl bromide is flammable only in the range of 10 percent to 16 percent by volume in air. Its physical properties do not meet the definition of a flammable gas as defined by DOT and TC. The onset of thermal decomposition occurs at approximately 752°F (400°C).
