Company Description

Chrisnorman manufacture Potassium Cyanide which is a colorless crystalline compound, used in smaller applications like jewelry for chemical gilding and buffing etc. Potassium cyanide is offered in powder or cylindrical tablet each tablets weighing 100 grams. It is an inorganic compound with the formula KCN. This colorless crystalline compound, similar in appearance to sugar, is highly soluble in water. Most KCN is used in gold mining, organic synthesis, and electroplating.

KCN is highly toxic. The moist solid emits small amounts of hydrogen cyanide due to hydrolysis, which smells like bitter almonds. Not everyone, however, can smell this odor: the ability to do so is a genetic trait. Actually, potassium cyanide doesn't give a quick and painless death, it's used as part of a three-drug cocktail to kill people.Cyanide is not exceptional as regards the amount needed to kill you: 200mg (0.2grams) is the accepted oral lethal dose for an average sized man
