About Ammoniated Mercury Chloride

Ammoniated Mercury Chloride, also known as White Precipitate or Mercuric Ammonium Chloride, is a chemical compound with the formula HgNH₂Cl. It appears as a white, odorless, crystalline powder. Historically, it has been used for its antiseptic and antimicrobial properties, especially in pharmaceutical and topical applications. The compound is formed through the reaction of mercury salts with ammonia, resulting in a stable product that exhibits potent germicidal effects.

​

Ammoniated Mercury Chloride was once widely used in the medical field, particularly as a topical agent in ointments and creams for skin disorders, including infections and skin irritations. It has also found use in cosmetic preparations and veterinary medicines. Despite its historical use, the compound has largely fallen out of favor due to mercury-related toxicity concerns and the development of safer alternatives.

​

Although its use is now restricted in many regions, Ammoniated Mercury Chloride is still of interest in specialized areas due to its unique properties. The compound’s ability to inhibit microbial growth has made it valuable for certain niche applications, though its potential environmental and health impacts are taken seriously under modern safety guidelines.
