Description
Silver Nitrate Product Overview
Silver nitrate (AgNO3) forms colorless crystals that dissolve very easily in water and darken in light. It contains about 63.5% silver and is the starting point for most other silver compounds.
In addition, electronics producers use it to make silver powders, pastes and nanowires for conductive inks and solar cells, and mirror producers use it in silvering solutions. Similarly, catalyst producers use it for silver catalysts, laboratories use it in chloride titrations, medical producers use it in antimicrobial dressings and caustic sticks, and photographic and plating producers use it as a silver source.
Notably, related products in our range include Copper(II) Oxide, İndium Metal and Potassium Nitrate.
