Silver chloride is a chemical compound with the chemical formula AgCl. This white crystalline solid is well known for its low solubility in water (this behavior being reminiscent of the chlorides of Tl+ and Pb2+). Upon illumination or heating, silver chloride converts to silver (and chlorine), which is signaled by grey to black or purplish coloration to some samples. AgCl occurs naturally as a mineral chlorargyrite.
Uses
The silver chloride electrode is a common reference electrode in electrochemistry.
Silver chloride’s low solubility makes it a useful addition to pottery glazes for the production of “Inglaze lustre”.
Silver chloride has been used as an antidote for mercury poisoning, assisting in the elimination of mercury.
Silver chloride is used:
to make photographic paper since it reacts with photons to form latent images and via photoreduction.
in photochromic lenses, again taking advantage of its reversible conversion to Ag metal.
in bandages and wound healing products.
to create yellow, amber, and brown shades in stained glass manufacture.
as an infrared transmissive optical component as it can be hot-pressed into window and lens shapes.
