The Texture and Heat Treatment of Hydrated Tin (IV) Oxides

  • Chapter
Reactivity of Solids

Abstract

Various preparations of hydrated tin (IV) oxides are reported. These are classed as α- or β- stannic acids according to their stability in concentrated hydrochloric acid. Precipitation in the cold gives α- stannic acid, whilst preparations at high temper­ature result in β- stannic acid; the former being of smaller particles than those of the latter.

The surface texture of these preparations have been character­ised from their nitrogen adsorption isotherms. They have been subjected to thermogravimetric analysis (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray diffraction. There is no formation of stoichiometric hydrates in the oxide system but water is adsorbed on the particles which can be identified as small crystallites of cassiterites (SnO2).
