Usage

General Description

Iridium potassium cyanide is a chemical compound composed of iridium, potassium, and cyanide. It is a highly toxic and potentially lethal substance that is used in electroplating processes to deposit iridium onto other metal surfaces, as well as in the production of iridium nanoparticles. It is also used in organic synthesis and as a catalyst in certain chemical reactions. However, due to its extreme toxicity, iridium potassium cyanide must be handled with extreme caution and proper safety measures to prevent accidental exposure and poisoning.
