Why is Sodium Cyanide so popular?

Why is Sodium Cyanide so popular?

Tianjin Sino Chemical Co.,LTD. is one of the first manufacturers that can export sodium cyanide. In the first quarter of 2024, the sales volume of this product will be as high as 2000MT. Let us introduce the use of this product.

Sodium cyanide is a cubic crystal system, white crystalline particles or powder, easily deliquescent, and has a faint smell of bitter almonds. Highly toxic, contact with skin wounds, inhalation, and swallowing trace amounts can cause death. The chemical formula is NaCN, melting point is 563.7°C, and boiling point is 1496°C. It is easily soluble in water and easily hydrolyzed to generate hydrogen cyanide. The aqueous solution is strongly alkaline. It is an important basic chemical raw material and is used in basic chemical synthesis, electroplating, metallurgy and organic synthesis of medicine, pesticides and metal processing. Complexing agent, masking agent. It is a compound containing cyanide (CN).

Sodium cyanide is an important basic chemical raw material used in basic chemical synthesis, electroplating, metallurgy and organic synthesis of medicines, pesticides and metal processing. Complexing agent, masking agent. Refining and electroplating of precious metals such as gold and silver

Used as quenching agent for various steels in the machinery industry.

In the electroplating industry, it is used as the main component of copper, silver, cadmium and zinc plating. In the electroplating solution, it can reduce the anode polarization, ensure the normal dissolution of the anode, stabilize the plating solution, and improve the cathode polarization to obtain a uniform coating.

In the metallurgical industry, it is used to extract precious metals such as gold and silver.

In the chemical industry, it is a raw material for manufacturing various inorganic cyanides and hydrocyanic acid. It is also used to manufacture copolymers of organic glass, various synthetic materials, nitrile rubber, and synthetic fibers.

In the dye industry, it is used to make cyanuric chloride (reactive dye intermediate and raw material for the production of brighteners).

In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used to manufacture methyl cyanoacetate and diethyl malonate. It is used as a mordant in the textile industry and is also used in liquid carburizing and nitriding of steel.

Important inorganic cyanides produced directly from sodium cyanide mainly include sodium cyanide, potassium cyanide, potassium cyanide, zinc cyanide, barium cyanide, cuprous cyanide, sodium thiocyanide, and potassium thiocyanide; Organic cyanides include cyanoacetic acid, malononitrile, methionine, benzyl cyanide, cyanuric chloride, etc. The main products that use sodium cyanide to reproduce hydrogen cyanide are: methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid, azobisisobutyronitrile, azobisisoheptanitrile, nitrilotriacetic acid, hydroxyl Acetonitrile etc.
