Sodium Stannate Manufacturer & Supplier in India

Sodium Stannate (Na₂SnO₃·3H₂O) is a white crystalline powder and one of the most commercially important tin compounds in the electroplating and surface finishing industries. It is the preferred tin source for alkaline tin plating baths, where it provides smooth, consistent tin deposits on steel and aluminium substrates without the corrosion risks associated with acid-based tin plating systems.

Beyond electroplating, Sodium Stannate is used as a flame retardant additive in polymers and textiles, as a weighting agent in the textile industry, and as a stabiliser for hydrogen peroxide solutions. Our product is manufactured and tested to meet the demanding purity requirements of all these industrial applications.

What is Sodium Stannate Used For?

Sodium Stannate is the tin source for alkaline tin plating baths and is also used in flame retardant and textile weighting applications.

Electroplating

Alkaline Tin Plating Industries

Sodium Stannate is the primary tin source in alkaline tin electroplating baths. It deposits a smooth, uniform tin coating on steel, copper, and aluminium substrates, offering better coverage on complex geometries than acid tin baths. Widely used in the food packaging, electronics, and automotive component industries for corrosion-resistant tin coatings.

Fire Safety

Fire Retardant

Sodium Stannate functions as an effective flame retardant additive in polymer formulations and textile treatments. It works synergistically with other halogen-free flame retardant systems to reduce the flammability of plastics, coatings, and treated fabrics. Increasingly preferred as an environmentally acceptable alternative to halogenated flame retardants.

Textile

Weighting Agent in Textile Industries

In the textile industry, Sodium Stannate has historically been used as a weighting agent for silk and other natural fibres to increase their body and drape. It is also used in certain textile dyeing and finishing processes where its alkaline tin chemistry assists in colour development and fabric treatment.

Peroxide Stabiliser

Peroxide Stabilisation

Sodium Stannate is used as a stabiliser for hydrogen peroxide solutions, including peroxide-based bleaching formulations. Buyers should confirm suitability against the regulations of their market.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sodium stannate white powder spread on dark surface

The chemical formula of Sodium Stannate is Na₂SnO₃·3H₂O. The CAS number is 12027-70-2 and the molecular weight is 266.73 g/mol. It is a tin(IV) compound where tin is in the +4 oxidation state, forming an alkaline solution when dissolved in water.

The CAS number of Sodium Stannate (Na₂SnO₃·3H₂O) is 12027-70-2. The molecular weight is 266.73 g/mol. Meghachem manufactures Sodium Stannate with a minimum Sn content of 42.00% and metal impurities below 100 ppm.

Sodium Stannate is used as a stabiliser for hydrogen peroxide solutions, including peroxide-based bleaching formulations. Buyers should confirm that the grade and use meet the cosmetic regulations of their market.

In alkaline tin electroplating, Sodium Stannate is dissolved in a caustic bath to provide tin ions for deposition onto steel, copper, and aluminium substrates. The alkaline bath (as opposed to acid tin baths using Stannous Sulphate) is preferred for plating complex geometries and high-value parts because it produces smoother deposits with better throwing power and avoids hydrogen embrittlement of the substrate.

Both are used in alkaline tin plating baths, but Potassium Stannate offers greater bath stability and is preferred for high-precision plating in electronics and aerospace applications. Sodium Stannate is more commonly used for general-purpose alkaline tin plating. The choice between the two depends on the required deposit quality, bath operating conditions, and cost considerations for the specific plating operation.
