What exactly is Tin disulfide?

Tin disulfide (also known as Tin) is an inorganic compound with chemical formula SnS2. It is a yellow hexagonal flake with it's CdI2 cristal structure. It is not very soluble in water, but it is water-soluble in aqua regia and hot alkaline solutions, and also in sodium sulfide Solution, commonly used as gold paint.

Tin disulfide dissolves in aqua regia and hot acid solution. It can also undergo coordination reactions when exposed to concentrated hydrochloric acid. However, it is insoluble in dilute hydrochloric acid, insoluble in water, and in nitric acid. It can also react by combining ammonium with sulfide in order to dissolve.

How do I make Tin disulfide?

Tin disulfide could be produced through the direct combination of tin with sulfur in the presence of iodine. The reaction involves heating:

2. S --- SnS2

Another method is to pass hydrogen sulfide through the tin (IV) salt or (IV) salt solution, and then the precipitate.

Electrochemical behavior of carbon nanotubes with multi-walled walls confined by tin disulfide. It is the negative electrode in lithium ion battery

The direct current arc-plasma method was used to make multi-walled carbon Nanotube-confined tin nanostructures (Sn@MWCNT) as a precursor in a methane environment, and later SnS_2@MWCNT was obtained by this sulfurization. The physical properties of the materials, such as Raman, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) as well as the transmission electron microscope (TEM) demonstrated that the size of multi-walled carbon Nanotubes was around 400nm. The carbon layer on the surface was well crystallized in addition, the thickness of this carbon-based layer was 10 nanometers. Lithium-ion cells using Sn S2@MWCNT nanostructures as anode materials have relatively good electrochemical performance. The first charge-discharge Coulomb rate is 71% following 50 cycles, the battery's capacity has remained at 703 mAh?g-1. The superior capacity characteristics of SnS_2@MWCNT nanostructured electrodes result from the fact that a range of active materials offer the capacity in combination, and the catalyst for each of them is distinct.

Study on electrochemical performance of tin disulfide/single-walled carbon nanotube composite material used as anode material for lithium-ion battery

A new composite material of SnS2 combined with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was made by an easy solvothermal procedure. It was found to have an excellent electrochemical performance when connected to the negative electrode of the lithium Ion batteries. When the current density is high of 1 A/gand after hundred cycles it still maintains a variable specific capacity of approximately 510 mAh/g. As a comparison, we used the same method to synthesize a single SnS2 material and conduct an electrochemical analysis on it. The results demonstrate that, although the initial capacity of the SnS2 material is relatively impressive, the cycle performance is not as good, and it fades quickly after fewer than 20 cycles. The higher performance of this composite material in lithium-ion batteries is thought to be the result of an interaction between the two parts in SnS2 as well as SWCNTs.
