Information profile @ a Glance
- Organic tin salts are Organic compound that contains one or more tin
ions bonded by ionic bonds. Salts are products of acid-base reactions.
-
Tin forms two series of compounds: stannous, in which tin is in the +2
oxidation state, and stannic, in which it is in the +4 state.
-
Tin
salts are stannic chloride ,sodium stannate, Tin oxide, tin oxalate and
potassium stannate.
-
Stannates, either sodium or
potassium, are used for some niche electroplating applications, for
example aluminium pistons. They can be used as cheaper alternatives to
some silver or nickel processes in electronics. Their electroplating
processes are alkaline and more difficult to control, with potassium
stannate being more effective. Sodium stannate is widely used in
copper-tin and zinc-tin systems.
-
Tin oxide has been used for
millennia as a white opacifier for glazes and, although more recently it
has been largely replaced by cheaper alternatives, it is still used in
the highest quality art ware.
-
Conductive electrodes can
be made from sintering tin oxide, often with a small amount of copper
and antimony doping
-
In sol-gel form conductive
Antimony Tin Oxide (ATO) can be used as an anti-static treatment for
displays, plastics or textile fibres.
-
Silver-tin oxide sintered
products are also widely used in electrical contacts for relays and
automotive application
-
Tin oxide is also used as a
catalyst material, particularly for carbon monoxide oxidation and other
similar reactions
-
Absorption of carbon
monoxide and organic substances on the tin oxide surface changes
electrical resistance and so tin oxide and its variants are commonly
used as gas sensor materials.
-
Tin oxide is also an
abrasive and used in some polishing applications, including stone
polishing and LCD screens. It is also use in tyres and some friction
materials to improve performance.
-
Hydrated tin oxide can
coordinate metals and is used, for example in chromatography of
radionuclides, including in the medical field. It is also used to remove
metals from petroleum feedstock in refineries, preventing coking on
catalyst beds.
-
Sol-gel products based on
tin oxide can also be used in textiles and rubbers for example
-
Nanotin oxides are also
being evaluated for next generation magnesium and sodium ion battery
anodes and for textile-based wearable electronics.
-
Probably the largest
potential is for use in lithium ion batteries, where impregnation of
carbon anodes with stannic/stannous chloride or nanotin oxides can
significantly increase charge storage capacity
-
The most
important applications for inorganic tin chemicals are as catalysts for
a wide range of industrial processes, glass coatings, electroplating
baths, fire retardants, and in the ceramics and cement industries.
Energy conservation has become a major technological driver
and significant growth is expected in the use of tin catalysts for
production of polyurethane foam thermal insulation and in tin oxide
coatings
for low emissivity ‘e-glass’, widely used in modern ‘green’ buildings.
-
Polyvalent tin oxides can
also be photo catalytic and a significant research effort is focussing
on applications such as water splitting to produce hydrogen, dye
bleaching and self-cleaning windows
-
Stannous Chloride is used for metallic surfaces or glass and
plastic as a sensitizing agent in preparing glass and
plastic for metalizing. Examples include mirrors, metalized glazing and
electronic components on a plastic base
- Manufacturers and importers of inorganic tin chemicals (in
quantities of 1 tonne or more each year) are responsible for registering
dossiers of information about those chemicals with the European
Chemicals Agency. In order to relieve some of the burden, companies are
being encouraged to work together and share the costs.
- International Tin Association figures show that chemical
applications represent the second-largest component of global tin
demand, accounting for 18 percent last year.
