Hydrolysis properties: easily hydrolysed in contact with water.
Application
As a chemical reagent: in organic synthesis, tin iodide can be used as a catalyst or reactant to participate in some specific organic chemical reactions and help synthesise new organic compounds. In analytical chemistry, it can be used in the qualitative or quantitative analysis of certain substances to assist in the detection and identification of other chemical substances.
For material preparation: tin iodide can be used as a mineralising agent in the preparation of black phosphorus related materials. For example, in the preparation of two-dimensional black phosphorus – MoO₃-x composites, tin iodide interacts with other substances to assist in the generation of materials with specific structures and properties, and such composites have potential applications in areas such as photocatalytic hydrogen production.
Application in specific reactions or experiments: In some chemical reactions or experiments that require specific iodine or tin sources, tin iodide can provide iodine and tin elements to participate in the reaction and help achieve specific chemical transformations or experimental purposes.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
