Tin fluoroborate Chemical Properties,Uses
Chemical Properties
Only available as a solution, e.g. 47% w; prepared by dissolution of SnO in fluoroboric acid; used in tin and tin-lead plating baths [KIR83]
Uses
Tin(II) tetrafluoroborate is used in electroplating. It is also used for plating bath tinned copper, tin and tin alloy. Further, it acts as a catalyst for various organic reactions. It is also employed in metal plating. In addition to this, it is used as a petrochemical additive.
