In the early history of cryptography and ciphers then invisible inks using silver salts and other chemicals were used. Silver colloids were regularly used and abused in this area. Silver colloids are now finding application (and legislation) as batericides. We'll note that silver colloids are not actually silver (on the surface) and owe their bactericidal properties to dissolution of the Ag+ ion from silver oxide on their surface. Ag is also used in Pd-Ag alloys for catalyst and hydrogen purification uses - we'll explore these too.
