Tin Powder

Tin Powder is manufactured from electrolytic and atomisation process.

Tin powder is manufactured by air-atomising using only high purity certified ingots. The resulting particles are available from 20 microns up to 200 microns.

Tin powder is a silvery-gray metallic element and is a versatile substance that has become pivotal in various industries. It is used in toothpaste, perfumes, soaps, food additives, and dyes. Tin can also combine with carbon to form organotin compounds, which are used to make plastics, food packages, plastic pipes, pesticides, paints, and pest repellents.

Tin powder has many uses in powder metallurgy, including:

  • Pressed and sintered components
  • Bearings and bushings
  • Metallurgical alloying
  • Chemical processes
  • Friction parts
  • Surface engineering
  • Decorative
  • Welding and brazing

Tin powder is usually found in the form of cassiterite, which is an oxide mineral. It can also be used in:

  • Self-lubricating bearings
  • Friction materials
  • Chemical formulations
  • Metal-bonded abrasive wheels and cutting tools
  • Metals and ceramic bonding
  • Diamond tools
  • Sintered parts
  • Catalysts
  • Mechanical plating
  • Carbon brushes
  • Welding electrodes
