Description

DescriptionPotassium cyanide, an inorganic compound with the chemical formula KCN, is a white crystalline powder and highly toxic [2]. Deliquescent in wet air and release trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide gas. Soluble in water, ethanol, glycerol, slightly soluble in methanol, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, aqueous solution is strongly alkaline, and quickly hydrolyzed.ApplicationIt has the same use as sodium cyanide, and has the advantages of high conductivity and fine coating during electroplating compared with sodium cyanide. It is more suitable for use, but the price is more expensive. Used for extracting gold and silver from ore flotation. Heat treatment of steel, manufacture of organic nitriles. Analytical chemistry as a reagent. In addition, it is also used for photography, etching, lithography, etc.SpecificationsTest ItemStandard SpecificationMinimum assay (Arg.)97.0%Insoluble matter in H2O0.01 %Chloride (Cl)0.05%Phosphate (PO4)0.005 %Sulfate (SO4)0.02%Sulfide (S)0.001 %Thiocyanate (SCN)0.01%Packaging specifications50kg iron drum，18MT/20’FCL & 25MT/40’FCL50kg iron drum，13.5MT/20’FCL & 25MT/40’FCL(with tray)1000kg wooden box，20MT/20’FCL & 26MT/40’FCL1100kg wooden box，22MT/20’FCL & 26.4MT/40’FCLEvery package is sealed, tamper-proof, and compliant with international safety regulations to ensure product integrity and safety during transport and storage.Certifications:ISO 9001Manufactured in an OHSAS 18001 certified facilitySDS and special documentation availableShipping InformationMOQ: (Due to the nature of chemical transportation, please consult the sea trade manager for details!)Port of Loading: CHINA – Shanghai Port, Ningbo Zhoushan Port, Guangzhou Port, Qingdao Port, Tianjin Port, Dalian Port, Xiamen Port, Lianyungang Port (can be ensured according to the requirements of customers)Delivery Time: 4-6 weeksPayment TermsL/C, D/P, T/T at buyer’s costSample available on requestIntroducing Potassium Cyanide by United Chemical Co., Ltd.At United Chemical Co., Ltd., based in Shaanxi, China, we are proud to offer Potassium Cyanide (KCN), a highly versatile and essential compound in various industrial and research applications.
