POTASSIUM COPPER CYANIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Potassium copper cyanide (KCu(CN)2) is a white, crystalline solid used in electroplating to deposit a layer of copper onto a substrate. It is also used in the production of certain chemicals and as a laboratory reagent. Potassium copper cyanide is highly toxic and poses significant health hazards upon contact or inhalation. Proper handling requires the use of comprehensive protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and respirators, as well as working in a well-ventilated area. Storage should be in tightly sealed containers, away from incompatible substances. Disposal must follow stringent environmental regulations to prevent contamination. Potassium copper cyanide is valued for its effectiveness in electroplating and chemical synthesis, but its use requires strict adherence to safety protocols to prevent health and environmental hazards.
