Reaxis®  S25

Stannous Chloride Dihydrate, also commonly referred to as Tin(II) chloride or SnCl2, is a versatile high metal content stannous inorganic tin that is used in several reactions and applications. REAXIS® S25 is one of our family of liquid grades of the primary solid grade, REAXIS® C154. REAXIS® C154 is produced to the highest standards utilizing high- purity tin metal while minimizing stannic and maximizing stannous content. REAXIS® S25 is a stable liquid grade of tin chloride, containing approximately 25% of REAXIS® C154 and 12% active stannous tin. REAXIS® S25 is the lowest stannous tin liquid grade offered. Other liquid grades include REAXIS® S50, REAXIS® S45 and REAXIS® S72. REAXIS® S25 is present on a wide range of international regulatory inventories, making it a great choice for multinational product development.

Applications

Common end-use chemistries and applications for REAXIS® S25 include: esterifications, personal care, surface finishing, oil well stimulation as an (acidizing additive), corrosion inhibition, and glass applications as a silver mirroring and color modifier). As a reducing agent, REAXIS® S25 finds diverse applications and benefits in various applications like those requiring the reduction of silver used for mirror coatings and the reduction of iron needed in oil & gas well stimulations. This reduction functionality is commonly used in industrial water treatment applications requiring the minimization of toxic metals.   

Reactivity

The main reactivity attribute of REAXIS® S25 would be in its reduction of a wide range of metals. This electron transfer makes REAXIS® S25 an ideal additive where toxic metal impurities are present and need to either be reduced or separated out. This type of reactivity would be a function of stannous tin content and thus the various liquid grades of stannous chloride would be differentiated here due to the differences in tin content. 

Package & Storage

Packaging

  • 30 gal plastic drum, 300 lbs net
  • 275 gal tote, 2900 lbs net

Storage

REAXIS® S25 should be stored in the original packaging.  The container should be closed tightly after each use to maximize shelf life. Characteristic of most inorganic tins (Sn(II)), the primary cause of instability would be oxidation, where the signs of oxidation would be the yellowing of the white crystals.  

Safety and Handling

Before use of Reaxis products please refer to the relevant Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for safety and toxicological data as well as for the information on proper transportation, storage, and use. SDSs are available by request via our web site reaxis.com, contacting your local representative, or emailing direct to techservices@reaxis.com.
