Argentum iodatum（Cat No.:L006946）, refers to silver iodide, a chemical compound composed of silver (Ag) and iodine (I). It appears as a yellow, odorless solid, insoluble in water but soluble in ammonia and potassium iodide solutions. Silver iodide is commonly used in the photographic industry as a light-sensitive material in traditional black-and-white photography. It forms light-sensitive crystals when exposed to light, enabling the capture of images. Due to its light-sensitive properties, it has also been explored in scientific research and cloud seeding applications, where it is used to stimulate rainfall by seeding clouds with artificial ice crystals.
