Silver Chloride Production Cost Reports

Silver Chloride production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Silver Chloride production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Silver Chloride. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Silver Chloride is a metal salt with a silver atom attached to a chlorine ion. The compound is represented by the chemical formula AgCl. Its molecular weight is 143.32 g/mol. It is a white-colored crystalline chemical that is photosensitive in nature. Chloride salts of silver metal are insoluble in water. Similarly, it is insoluble in certain other organic solvents, such as ammonium hydroxide and concentrated sulfuric acid. However, it is soluble in potassium bromide and sodium thiosulfate solutions.

Its density is 5.56 g/cm3. Its vapor pressure is measured around 1 mm Hg at 912 °C. Its flash point is measured around 1550°C. Its melting and boiling points are measured around 455 °C and 1550 °C. It is a photosensitive solid that darkens when exposed to light. It is an inorganic chemical that is prepared by the chemical reaction between silver nitrate and sodium chloride. It breaks down to chlorine gas and silver in the presence of sunlight. It can also react with basic chemicals such as ammonia and results in the formation of complex chemicals such as chloride ions and silver diammo ions.

It is a well-known metallic salt that has several applications associated with electronic, chemical, metal, and other industries. The crystalline powdered compound is melted and molded into metal ingots. These ingots are rolled into thin sheets that are further processed to develop cathode sheets. Moreover, it is largely used in electrochemistry, where the compound is utilized as an electrode in electronic devices. Its low solubility allows its involvement in the production of chemical glazes, which add glaze luster to the potteries. It is also used in manufacturing photochromic lenses, photographic films, stained glass, and more.
