Silver Chloride

Product Description

Silver Chloride (AgCl) is a high-purity, light-sensitive inorganic compound widely used in analytical chemistry, electrochemistry, and photographic materials. It appears as a white crystalline powder that darkens to violet or gray upon exposure to light due to decomposition into metallic silver.

Known for its low solubility and high ionic stability, Silver Chloride is commonly used in reference electrodes, precipitation reactions, and as a source of silver ions in various chemical processes. Its stability and purity make it ideal for laboratory, industrial, and educational applications.
