Product Overview & Quality

Product Name: Tin (II) chloride (Stannous chloride).
Grade: Analytical Reagent (AR Grade), specifically designed for high-precision laboratory and analytical applications.
Purity (Assay): Not less than 98%
Physical Properties: Odorless white crystals; highly soluble in water (though solutions may become turbid without the addition of acid).
Key Features: Acts as a strong reducing agent; commonly used in metal analysis and organic synthesis.

Safety & Hazards

Classification: Corrosive and harmful if swallowed; causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage.
Health Risks: May cause respiratory irritation if dust or vapors are inhaled. It may also lead to allergic skin reactions.
Environmental Hazards: Toxic to aquatic life.
First Aid Measures: Immediately flush affected skin or eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If swallowed, rinse mouth and seek medical attention immediately; do not induce vomiting.

Handling & Storage

Storage: Must be kept in an airtight container, as it is sensitive to air and moisture (easily oxidizes to Tin (IV)). Store in a cool, dry area.
