Subject: Silver nitrate mixed with silica
An article by Dick Sullivan gives caution regarding mixture of silver
nitrate with finely particulated metals like aluminum or zinc. I have read
MSDS and other safety information regarding this compound but have found
nothing regarding mixture with silica. I am trying to make a 14% silver
nitrate silica. The plan was to dissolve the silver nitrate in water add
the silica and mix well. Then heat it in a microwave for 10 minutes to
speed drying. Does anyone have any information to support this procedure?
Thanks
