Tin(IV) oxide derived from high-quality tin metal (min 99.9%). A fine, inert microcrystalline powder is obtained from the thermal process, which combines excellent opacifying properties and whiteness with excellent abrasive properties. Its thermal stability and its chemically inert nature allows for the production of a wide range of long-lasting ceramic colors. It also features high electrical conductivity and optical transparency.

Its main uses are in the field of ceramic glazes, frits and body, as well as for the production of pigments. The product also offers excellent performance when used as an refining additive in glass production. Yet another sector in which Oximet boasts many years of experience is friction products (brakes, polishing ...).

Fields of Application

Pigments and Frits

Tin(IV) oxide is widely recognized to have superior opacifying and stabilizing properties. For this reason, it is an important component of ceramic bodies, colorings, enamels, glazes, and frits.

Fields of Application

Inks

Given its chemical and physical properties, particularly its very fine granulometric distribution, tin(IV) oxide is suitable for use as a ceramic ink.

Fields of Application

Ceramics and Sanitaryware

Tin(IV) oxide's excellent stability provides a unique shininess and shade of white. It is precisely for this reason that it is widely used for the production of plates, containers, sanitaryware and ceramic products in general.

Fields of Application

Glass Industry

Thanks to its chemical and physical properties, the presence of tin(IV) oxide in the glass mixture allows a defect-free finished product to be obtained.

Fields of Application

Brake and Clutch Industry

Its excellent abrasive qualities and high stability make tin(IV) oxide an essential component for the production of brakes and clutches.

Fields of Application

Aerospace Sector

Many components used in this sector incorporate tin(IV) oxide, due to its excellent electrical and chemical properties. 

Fields of Application

Electronics

Tin(IV) oxide is a semiconductor. This makes it widely used in the production of electronic components, on its own or in combination with other elements.

Fields of Application

Marble and Granite Polishing

Thanks to its excellent abrasive properties and its fineness, tin(IV) oxide is widely used for polishing of hard surfaces.
