    [7] [8] [9] Thus the complete absence of thiocyanate or reduced thiocyanate [10] in the human body, (e.g., cystic fibrosis) is damaging to the human host defense system. [11] [12] Thiocyanate is a potent competitive inhibitor of the thyroid sodium-iodide symporter. [13] Iodine is an essential component of thyroxine. Since thiocyanates will ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbicidal_warfare

    Herbicidal warfare is the use of substances primarily designed to destroy the plant-based ecosystem of an area. Although herbicidal warfare use chemical substances, its main purpose is to disrupt agricultural food production and/or to destroy plants which provide cover or concealment to the enemy, not to asphyxiate or poison humans and/or destroy human-made structures.

    In methyl thiocyanate, N≡C and C−S distances are 116 and 176 pm. By contrast, N=C and C=S distances are 117 and 158 pm in isothiocyanates. [7] Typical bond angles for C−S−C are 100°. [3] By contrast C−N=C in aryl isothiocyanates is 165°. Again, the thiocyanate isomers are quite different with C−S−C angle near 100°.

    2. Lint Buildup in Dryer Vents. Lint can accumulate in your dryer's lint trap and in the venting hose, posing a significant fire risk due to the lint's high flammability when exposed to heat.

  8. Lead(II) thiocyanate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead(II)_thiocyanate

    Lead(II) thiocyanate can be formed from the acidification of lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO 3) 2, with nitric acid, HNO 3, in the presence of thiocyanic acid, HSCN.It may also be made by reacting lead(II) acetate (Pb(CH 3 COO) 2) solved in water with either potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) or ammonium thiocyanate (NH 4 SCN), thus causing a white precipitation of solid lead(II) thiocyanate according to ...
