Enhancement the thermal stability of tin oxide hydrate ( SnO2.H20) by the phosphoric acid treatment.

Tin dioxide has many motivated application, such as n-type semiconductor, DSSC, Li-batteries, photocatalysts,…etc.

Analyze the structural and surface properties of phosphorus containing SnO2 using different techniques.

Introduction

Preparation of a reference sample of tin hydrogen phosphate (Sn(HPO4)2 · nH2O).

The preparation of P-SnO2 was performed in two stages:

2- (SnO2.H20 ) was treated with different concentrations phosphoric acid solution to prepare samples with different (P:Sn ) molar ratios.

Experiment

1- Tin oxide hydrate was prepared by the hydrolysis of tin(IV) chloride.

The TG curve shows the total weight loss for :

Sn(HPO4)2 15% up to 800 ∼◦C

Sn(HPO4)2 · nH2O → Sn(HPO4)2 + nH2O

Sn(HPO4)2 → SnP2O7 + H2O

P-SnO2/3.4 11%. up to 800 ◦C ∼

Results and discussion

SnO2 of enhanced thermal stability was prepared.

The phosphate coverage of tin oxide hydrate particles can be controlled via the phosphoric acid concentration.

The extent of sintering of SnO2 is reduced and it is proportional to phosphoric acid concentration,

At low phosphate content modification of SnO2 has high thermal stability in addition to the photocatalytic activity.
