Marshall, Data was noted at : http://sis.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search (and selected 'silver') It would appear I merged two items together when saying it produced silver (see below / silv... /). I could not locate the other ref. to flame, fulminate...............Sorry about that, do you have an online address for a good chemical reference book(s)!
"Contact of metallic silver and sol silver cmpd with acetylene may cause formation of silver acetylide that is sensitive to shock. Contact with ammonia may cause formation of cmpd that are explosive when dry. Contact with strong hydrogen peroxide solutions will cause violent decomp to oxygen gas. /Silver metal and soluble silver compounds/ [Mackison, F. W., R. S. Stricoff, and L. J. Partridge, Jr. (eds.). NIOSH/OSHA - Occupational Health Guidelines for Chemical Hazards. DHHS(NIOSH) PublicationNo. 81-123 (3 VOLS). Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, Jan. 1981. 2]**PEER REVIEWED**" Henry, The fulminate I made was 50 years ago (when I was allowed to paint doorknobs) - think I used tinxture of mercurochrome and it did not hurt but felt like a cap going off. If you have a dog that might lick the doorknob it may not be a good idea! How easily we drift of topic, but all work and no play..........!
