MERCURIC CYANIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Mercuric cyanide is a white crystalline solid with the chemical formula Hg(CN)₂, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed in electroplating, as a reagent in organic synthesis, and in the production of other mercury compounds. Mercuric cyanide is also used in laboratory research and as a preservative in biological specimens. Despite its utility, mercuric cyanide is highly toxic and poses significant health risks, including neurological damage and potential carcinogenic effects. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures are essential to minimize exposure. Personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation are crucial when working with mercuric cyanide.
