Inorganic cyanide salts such as copper potassium cyanide may also be present.
He had earlier discovered cyanide salts.
The cyanide salt absorbed in the basic solution is buffered at pH 4.5 and then reacted with chlorine to form cyanogen chloride.
This dangerous process represents a significant risk associated with cyanide salts.
The cyanide salts kill in several hours.
Though both nitriles and cyanides can be derived from cyanide salts, most nitriles are not nearly as toxic.
Cyanohydrins are also prepared by displacement of sulfite by cyanide salts:
In salt bath nitriding the nitrogen donating medium is a nitrogen-containing salt such as cyanide salt.
The major drawback of cyaniding is that cyanide salts are poisonous.
We killed them in the gas chambers with cyanide salts, then we had the fresh bodies.
