Potassium Thiocyanate, 100g
Lab grade. Potassium thiocyanate appears as colorless, deliquescent crystals. It has a tendency to absorb moisture from the air, even to the point of forming an aqueous solution. Dilute aqueous KSCN can be used to create realistic blood effects. In contact with ferric chloride solution, the reaction forms a thiocyanatoiron complex (Fe(SCN)3 ) with a blood red color. NC-8575
