Properties, Storage and Cautions
Tin nanoparticles are highly reactive and must be handled with caution. Rapid movements and vibrations should be avoided. The powder should be protected from sunlight, heat, moisture, and impacts. Due to the risk of particle coagulation, it should be vacuum-sealed and stored in cool, dry conditions with minimal air exposure.
Applications
Tin is commonly used in multifunctional oil additives as a lubricant—such as in automotive engines—where it protects surfaces from friction and wear. It is also utilized in metal electric padding and conductive materials.
