Silver Nitrate handling procedure
Don't forget to wear eye protection when working with Silver Nitrate. NEVER get Silver Nitrate powder or solutions into your eyes.
Don't forget to wear Hand gloves. Before initiating Do not contact your skin with Silver Nitrate solutions. If you do, the moment you go into sunlight, the exposed skin will turn black.
This unsightly, but generally harmless color will last for about 10 days. There is no way to get it off, once it has turned black.
Preventing Silver Nitrate stains on your skin
TIPS –
1 – Dissolve 2 teaspoons of common table salt in 1 Cup of warm water.
2 – Place this Salt solution close by where you will be working with Silver Nitrate solutions.
Then, if you spill Silver Nitrate solution on your skin, do this:
1 – Stop what you are doing.
2 – Rub the Salt solution completely onto your skin, where you think the Silver Nitrate spilled.
3 – Rub HARD, get the Salt solution as deeply into your skin as you can. You can use a paper towel.
4 – Work quickly – you have about 10 seconds!
5 – After a minute or so, rinse off the Salt solution in plain tap water.
If you do this promptly, the Silver Nitrate will convert to Silver Chloride, and your skin will not darken when you later go out into the sunlight!
Silver nitrate is poisionous to fish and other aquatic organisms.
TIPS : ALWAYS dissolve Silver Nitrate powder into Distilled Water. NEVER use Tap Water when dissolving Silver Nitrate powder – it will turn ‘milky’ with formation of Silver Chloride
