What is Tin disulfide?

Tin disulfide is a non-organic compound that has the chemical formula SnS2. It is the yellow hexagonal flake which has a CdI2 cristal structure. It's not so soluble with water, but it's water-soluble in aqua regia. It is also soluble in hot alkaline liquids, and also in sodium sulfide Solution, which is frequently used as gold paint.

Tin disulfide is soluble in aqua regia as well as hot alkali solution and can undergo co-reaction with concentrated acid, however it is impermeable to dilute acids, insoluble in water, and nitric acid. It also reacts with ammonium sulfide and dissolve.

How do you prepare tin disulfide?

Tin disulfide may be obtained by directly combining tin and sulfur with the iodine. The reaction requires heating:

Sn + 2 S --- SnS2

Another approach is to inject hydrogen sulfide through solution of tin (IV) salt or tin (IV) salt solution and the precipitate.

Electrochemical behavior of multi-walled carbon nitrotubes enclosed tin disulfide as negative electrodes of lithium ion battery

The direct current arc-plasma method was employed to create multi-walled carbon Nanotube-confined tin nanostructures (Sn@MWCNT) as an initial precursor in a methane-like atmosphere. SnS_2@MWCNT nanostructures were obtained through an sulfurization process. The results from the physical characterization of the material like Raman, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) as well as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed that the length of multi-walled carbon nanotubes was about 400nm, the carbon layer that was on the surface was crystallized, with the thickness of carbon being 10 nanometers. Lithium ion batteries using Sn S2@MWCNT nanostructures for anodes materials have fairly good electrochemical performance. The initial charge discharge Coulomb efficiency is 71%, at the end of 50 cycles, the capacity still maintains 703 mAh?g-1. The capacity-enhancing properties of SnS_2@MWCNT nanostructured electrodes are due to the fact that different types of active materials offer the capacity , as well as the reaction platform of each is different.

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

A novel composite of SnS2 combined with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was made by the simple solvothermal method. It has high electrochemical efficiency after being added to the negatively electrode material of the lithium ion battery. At a very high current density at 1 A/g, and after one hundred times it retains a specific capacity that is reversible of about 510 milliamps/g. To compare, we employed the same method to synthesize one SnS2 material and then conduct electrical tests with it. The results indicate that even though the initial performance of SnS2 material is high, the efficiency of the cycle is low and is rapidly degraded after just 20 cycles. The superior quality of this material for lithium-ion batteries thought to be due to the synergy of the two component made up of SnS2 along with SWCNTs.
