Silver cyanide is used in electroplating processes
Silver electrodeposition processes have historically relied on alkaline cyanide baths containing silver cyanide complexes.
The retrieved papers consistently confirm that silver plating and electrodeposition traditionally utilize cyanide-based baths, thereby supporting the claim.
