FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
What is Sodium Stannate Trihydrate CAS 12209-98-2?
A: Sodium stannate trihydrate is an inorganic tin salt containing sodium, tin, oxygen, and water of crystallization. CAS 12209-98-2 identifies this hydrated material, which is commonly written as Na2SnO3.3H2O or Na2Sn(OH)6, with a formula weight of about 266.73. -
Q:
Why is Sodium Stannate Trihydrate used in alkaline tin electroplating?
A: It is a tin source that forms soluble stannate complexes in alkaline plating baths, especially when used with sodium hydroxide. This allows tin to be deposited from alkaline solution and supports more uniform tin or tin-alloy plating in the bath. -
Q:
What other applications does this product have?
A: It is used as a stabilizer in hydrogen peroxide solutions, as an intermediate for downstream tin chemicals, and in glass, ceramic, textile mordanting, and fire-retardant fabric applications. It is also used in tin-alloy electroplating systems and water-based stannate process formulations. -
Q:
What are the typical physical properties?
A: Sodium stannate trihydrate is normally a white crystalline solid or powder that is soluble in water and forms an alkaline aqueous solution. It is generally insoluble in alcohol and acetone and loses its water of hydration at elevated temperature. -
Q:
How should Sodium Stannate Trihydrate be stored and handled?
A: Keep it in tightly closed, moisture-resistant containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid humid conditions and incompatible acidic or oxidizing materials, and use suitable PPE when handling the solid to prevent dust exposure and skin or eye contact.
