China and Germany are the leading exporters of tin oxide, accounting for a substantial share of global shipments, while the United States, South Korea, and Japan represent the largest importers, driven by demand from electronics and ceramic industries. Trade volumes have remained relatively stable over the past three years, with modest growth in Asian imports coinciding with fluctuations in tin oxide prices amid supply chain adjustments and raw material cost variations.
Tin oxide (SnO₂), identified by CAS Number 21651-19-4, is a white to off-white, odorless, crystalline solid that is non-volatile and thermally stable, with a melting point above 1630 °C. It is an inorganic metal oxide, classified as a wide-bandgap semiconductor material. Tin oxide is primarily used as a functional additive and precursor in the production of transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), ceramic glazes, gas sensors, and catalyst supports. Its key application areas include optoelectronics (e.g., touchscreens and solar cells), architectural and automotive glass coatings, ceramic pigments, and antimicrobial surface treatments.
Tin(II) oxide is a reducing agent; and is used in preparing other tin(II) salts. Also, it is used to make soft abrasive putty powder.
black crystals with a characteristic odour. Tin oxide is insoluble in water but soluble in acids and alkalis and slightly soluble in ammonium chloride. Tin oxide is incompatible with acids and/or alkalis.
This chemical is included in Basic Chemicals - Lithium Battery Materials. See more about what is Tin Oxide and Tin Oxide SDS information.
