Stannous chloride can also be used to test for gold, palladium and platinum in solution. It however, expires, some people says 2 weeks in the bottle, you can extend it's life span by simply putting tin metal in the bottle, the tin IV oxidizes the tin 0 to form 2x tin II, oxygen is the villain. Just thought i could share this!

I'm having a hell of a lot of trouble with the situation I need tin oxide for ceramic glaze recipe. I had A-1 Bail Bond tin ingot already so I put it on the mill and I shaved a small quantity down for testing. I put it in the drawers of my Mill Vice sticking out sideways with a box underneath it so I wouldn't lose any. Anyway I a used a 50-50 solution MTI water and 20 Baum hydrochloric acid that I actually made a couple of years ago. I heated then stirred it for actually a couple of days and all of a sudden all the tin particles turn into white powder. I got pissed off and I turn the heat up all the way and boiled the hell out of it to see if I could get it to go into solution. The amount of white powder dissipated by about 3/4 but when it cooled needle-like crystals formed. I repeated this Experiment three or four times over a week it didn't happen the same way every time. So it isn't entirely that difficult to come up with a crystalline form of tin chloride unless I was just very lucky I've tried electrolysis to make tin sulfate and stannous chloride and all I get is black sludge on the anode. And the water turned black as well. A funny thing before I add the electrolyte to the bath I noticed it that for a short time before the anode get coated white precipitate flows off of the cathode of tin quit rapidly. If you have anything to comment on this please do because I'm in desperate need of this oxide

Why do you specify 12g of tin, is that the maximum that the solution can hold before becoming saturated? What type of glass pan did you use to melt the tin? I'm a little surprised it didn't crack under heat from the torch. But maybe I'm just underestimating the heat tolerance of glass cookware(?) Lastly, how stable is the stannous chloride solution of stored in a brown container? Does it need to be stored at or below a certain temp, and. what is it's shelf life? Thanks. The follow-up video of tin crystal making is interesting.
@tonytoi85568 жыл бұрын
12 grams of tin is the ratio, some glass are "pyrex" (I don't know if it's the same in other countries), pyrex glass can hold more heat then normal glass.
@HighlanderNorth1 Жыл бұрын
👉 Tin melts at the comparably low temperature of 450°f or 231°c, which can be easily accomplished on a kitchen stove. That means tin's melting temperature is low enough that it's under the maximum safe heat tolerance of glassware that's specifically made for heating and cooking. I melted a few ounces of tin and poured it directly onto our glass stovetop, and onto a ceramic spoon holder without issue. However, it's probably a good idea to point out that there are undoubtedly certain types of glassware that may not handle temperatures of 450°f+ without cracking or breaking.

@ryanallen1014 Жыл бұрын
There had to be impurities somewhere. Stannous chloride turns purple upon precipitation, so something made the tin precipitate. Try another source if either acid or tin. Say you try a different brand of HCl and it still turns purple then you know it's your tin and vice versa.
