Manufactured under strict GMP-aligned conditions with full traceability and batch-specific CoA.
Catalyst in the synthesis of polyesters and alkyd resins for high-performance coatings.
Stabilizer and catalyst in PVC heat stabilization systems, particularly for transparent applications.
Key component in pharmaceutical-grade gelatin capsule manufacturing for controlled crosslinking.
Accelerator in silicone-based RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing) sealants and adhesives.
Reaction promoter in the preparation of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and tin-containing nanomaterials.
| Chemical Type | Organotin(II) carboxylate — Sn(CH₃COO)₂ |
| Product Form | Free-flowing white to off-white crystalline powder |
| Appearance | Crystalline solid; homogeneous granular texture |
| Melting Point | Decomposes above 160 °C (no sharp melting point) |
| Primary Applications | Catalysis, polymer stabilization, pharmaceutical excipient |
| Key Features | Anhydrous, low residual moisture (<0.5% w/w), high tin content (~37% Sn by ICP-OES) |
| Benefits | Reduced catalyst loading vs. stannous oxide; improved process reproducibility |
| Regulatory Compliance | REACH registered; compliant with USP <846> for tin content testing; non-REACH SVHC listed |
| Common Compatible Systems | Suitability |
| Polyester resin systems (e.g., unsaturated polyester) | Highly Recommended – Excellent dispersion and catalytic activity without gelation risk |
| PVC plastisols and organosol formulations | Recommended – Effective at 0.05–0.2 phr; requires inert handling to prevent oxidation |
| Ethanol/water-based pharmaceutical coating suspensions | Suitable – Stable in pH 4.5–6.5 range; compatible with HPMC and PVP binders |
| Silicone elastomer base polymers (α,ω-dihydroxypolydimethylsiloxane) | Highly Recommended – Rapid cure initiation at ambient temperature |
Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for Stannous Acetate?
A: The CAS number is 301-90-8 (anhydrous form). Note that hydrated variants (e.g., dihydrate) carry different CAS numbers and exhibit reduced thermal stability.
Q2: What is the typical usage level in polyester synthesis?
A: Standard dosage ranges from 50 to 200 ppm tin (equivalent to ~0.014–0.054 wt% Stannous Acetate), depending on acid value, temperature profile, and desired reaction time.
Q3: How does Stannous Acetate compare to Dibutyltin Dilaurate (DBTDL) in terms of regulatory acceptance?
A: Stannous Acetate is not classified as a reproductive toxin under CLP/GHS and is exempt from EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) authorization for catalytic use—unlike DBTDL, which faces increasing restrictions in consumer-facing applications.
Q4: Is Stannous Acetate subject to migration limits in food-contact polymers?
A: Yes — under EU Regulation (EC) No 10/2011, the specific migration limit (SML) for tin is 60 mg/kg food simulant. Stannous Acetate must be fully reacted and residual levels validated via EN 13130-1 testing prior to food-contact approval.
