Packaging and shipping
Sodium cyanide (NaCN), commonly known as kyanite or kyanite powder, is a white crystalline powder or blocky solid that readily deliquesces and has a faint bitter almond odor. It is a highly toxic inorganic compound. Even a small amount of skin contact, inhalation, or ingestion can lead to poisoning and death. At the same time, it is also an indispensable and important basic chemical raw material. Due to its extremely strong complexation ability and reactivity, it plays an irreplaceable core role in key industrial fields such as gold smelting, electroplating, and organic synthesis.
