What is Silver picrate?

Plain description, key identifiers and synonyms

Silver picrate, wetted with not less than 30% water appears as a white to light colored solid paste. Contains about 35% water, which reduces its tendency toward rapid decomposition or explosion. Considered safe for storage, handling and shipping, but should be treated as an explosive. Contact may cause irritation to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion.
