Silver Cyanide
| Description | AgCN City Chemical manufactures high purity Silver Cyanide, CAS 506-64-9 in bulk quantity. Silver Cyanide is an off-white powder insoluble in water commonly used for research and as an ingredient in silver plating. Cyanide is an optimal complexing agent—which increase the solubiliy of metal salts— because of its ease to chemically manipulate and elegant white color it yields. When a metal with lower electrode potential is added to silver cyanide, silver ions displace the metal’s atoms and provide a strong adhesion to the coating. |
