Potassium silver cyanide
Description
Potassium silver cyanide (CAS 506-61-6 ), also known as potassium argentocyanide, is the primary silver source used in electroplating baths to deposit uniform, high-purity silver coatings onto metal substrates. It functions as a soluble silver salt that releases silver ions in a controlled, complexed form suited to precision plating operations. In electronics manufacturing, it supplies silver for plating connectors and contacts. Lead frames require consistent conductivity and surface uniformity, which are critical to component performance. Decorative and functional silverware, jewelry, and flatware industries rely on it to achieve bright, adherent silver deposits. The compound allows for high-quality finishes across complex geometries. Printed circuit board fabrication uses silver plating baths formulated with this compound to meet tight thickness and adhesion specifications. In the printing sector, it supports the production of silver-coated surfaces used in specialty packaging and conductive inks. Potassium silver cyanide is supplied as a white crystalline powder or granules. It is available in electroplating-grade and technical-grade specifications, with silver content typically certified to defined assay levels to support bath formulation accuracy for industrial users. Packaging is offered in sealed, moisture-resistant containers sized for industrial consumption. These commonly range from kilogram quantities to bulk drum supply to meet various manufacturing requirements. Contact us for supply of Potassium silver cyanide Request Quote
