Silver thiocyanate

[citation needed] Silver thiocyanate may be formed via an ion exchange reaction.

In this double displacement reaction, silver nitrate and ammonium thiocyanate are dissolved in distilled water to produce silver thiocyanate and ammonium nitrate.

[10] Silver thiocyanate has also been used to absorb uv-visible light at values less than 500 nm.

At longer wavelengths, silver thiocyanate has been found to have good photocatalytic properties.

[8] Upon production, silver thiocyanate can be characterized through a wide range of techniques: x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman Spectroscopy, ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).
