SILVER(I) LACTATE - Introduction
Silver lactate is an inorganic silver compound with the chemical formula of C3H5O3Ag. Here are some of the properties and uses of silver lactate:
Nature:
1. Silver lactate is a white crystalline solid with hygroscopicity.
2. It is soluble in water and alcohol solvents, slightly soluble in ether solvents.
3. It is relatively stable in the air, but it will decompose under high temperature and sunlight.
4. It is a compound with antibacterial properties.
Use:
1. silver lactate is mainly used as an antibacterial agent in the field of medicine, commonly used in the production of bandages in the dressing.
2. It is also widely used in cosmetics and personal care products to inhibit the growth of microorganisms.
3. Silver lactate can also be used in textiles and plastics to improve its antibacterial properties.
Preparation Method:
The method for producing silver lactate can be obtained by reacting lactic acid with metallic silver. A specific synthetic step involves reacting lactic acid with a silver salt and separating the silver lactate from the reaction product.
Safety Information:
1. Silver lactate has low toxicity to the human body, but it should still be used carefully. Avoid inhaling dust or contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
2. When using silver lactate, it is recommended to wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles.
3. If ingested or exposed to silver lactate, clean the affected area immediately and seek medical help as soon as possible.
4. silver lactate should be stored in a dry, ventilated place, away from open flame and high heat source.
