| | silver picrate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Silver picrate is a yellow powder or crystalline material which turns brown when heated or exposed to light. Commercial product is a white to light tan solid paste. Contains about 35% water, which reduces its tendency toward rapid decomposition or explosion. Considered safe for storage, handling and shipping, but should be treated as an explosive. | | Chemical Properties | Yellow crystals containing 30% silver,
soluble in water. Slightly soluble in alcohol and
acetone; insoluble in ether and chloroform. | | Uses | Medicine (antimicrobial agent). | | General Description | A white to light colored solid paste. Contains about 35% water, which reduces its tendency toward rapid decomposition or explosion. Considered safe for storage, handling and shipping, but should be treated as an explosive. Contact may cause irritation to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion. | | Air & Water Reactions | Water soluble [Hawley]. | | Reactivity Profile | silver picrate may be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. The DRIED OUT material may explode if exposed to heat, flame, friction or shock. | | Hazard | Severe explosion risk. Very toxic. | | Health Hazard | Some are toxic and may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. | | Safety Profile | A flammable solid and
unstable substance forbidden from
transport. When heated to decomposition it
emits toxic vapors of NOx. | | Potential Exposure | Used in antibacterial medicines. | | Shipping | UN1347 Silver picrate, wetted with not ,30 % water, by mass, Hazard Class: 4.1; Labels: 4.1-Flammable solid. | | Incompatibilities | Organics or other oxidizable materials. Dried out material is unstable and a severe explosion risk; protect from shock, light, and vibration. |
