STANNOUS CHLORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Stannous Chloride, also known as tin(II) chloride, is a white crystalline solid with the chemical formula SnCl2. It is used in various industrial and chemical applications, primarily as a reducing agent, catalyst, and precursor in the production of other tin compounds. Stannous Chloride is commonly employed in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and perfumes, where it acts as a reducing agent and catalyst in various chemical reactions. It is also used in the electroplating industry to deposit tin onto various substrates, providing corrosion resistance and improved solderability. Proper handling and storage of Stannous Chloride are essential to maintain its quality and prevent moisture absorption. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial to prevent skin and eye irritation and other health hazards. Its versatility and effectiveness in various applications make Stannous Chloride a valuable chemical, although its use requires careful control to prevent hazards.
