    Description

    Stannous oxalate, also known as tin oxalate or tin(II) oxalate in Chinese, appears as a white powder, soluble in dilute hydrochloric acid but insoluble in water. It is a relatively stable stannous raw material that, combined with halogens (X) provided by ammonium salts, can effectively replace unstable SnI2 and reduce oxidation during synthesis. The tin content in stannous oxalate is similar to that of monobutyltin oxide, and it exhibits high catalytic activity, making it widely used as a catalyst in the metallurgical field. As an environmentally friendly catalyst, stannous oxalate is also applicable in esterification reaction catalysts, coal hydrogenation catalysts, and the production of blueprint paper.

    Application

    • Used to synthesize saturated polyester resin.
    • Used in the production of unsaturated polyester resin.
    • Used for high temperature transesterification reactions.

    FAQ

    I synthesize saturated polyester resins for high-performance powder coatings. How does stannous oxalate compare to MBTO?

    T2001 (SnC2O4) is a mild, food-contact-approved esterification catalyst; gives excellent color (APHA < 30) at 0.05–0.2%.

    My unsaturated polyester resin has a dark color. Can T2001 produce a lighter resin?

    Yes, stannous oxalate produces very light-colored resins because it does not oxidize as easily as titanium catalysts.

    Is MOFAN T2001 suitable for the production of polymer plasticizers (e.g., polyesters for PVC)?

    Yes, it catalyses the polyesterification of dicarboxylic acids with glycols without causing side reactions.

    What is the advantage of T2001 over Fascat 2001?

    Direct replacement; same performance at comparable loadings.

    My batch reactor is made of carbon steel. Does T2001 cause corrosion?

    No, it is less corrosive than halogenated tin catalysts; 304 stainless steel is preferred.

    Can T2001 be used to catalyze the transesterification of PET with glycols?

    Yes, at 200–240°C, 0.1% T2001 effectively depolymerizes PET into oligomers.

    How do I remove residual T2001 from the final polymer?

    Filtration after adding a filter aid (e.g., Celite) is effective; or use a chelating agent.

    Does T2001 cause any thermal instability in the final polyester?

    No, if neutralized with phosphite after reaction; otherwise, residual tin may promote degradation at >260°C.

    What is the shelf life of T2001?

    Stannous oxalate is sensitive to air oxidation; store in a sealed bag under nitrogen; use within 12 months.

    Is MOFAN T2001 approved for use in food-contact polyesters (EU 10/2011)?

    Yes, with specific migration limits; typically < 50 ppm tin in final resin.
