Description

Application
Mainly used in silver electroplating (to coat metals with a thin silver layer). Used in photographic processing. Sometimes used in metal finishing and polishing industries.

Purpose
Acts as a stable source of silver ions in solution. Helps produce smooth uniform and adherent silver coatings on surfaces.

General Description
It is a white crystalline water-soluble compound. Contains silver complexed with cyanide ions. Highly toxic due to the presence of cyanide.
