Synthesis behavior and microstructural characteristics of nano-sized SnO2 powders were investigated. SnO2 powders were synthesized by controlled heat treatment of nano-sized Sn powders in air. Microstructural observation revealed that the nano-sized SnO2 powders could be successfully prepared by controlled oxidation treatment with a low heating rate and further ball milling. The synthesis behavior was analyzed based on the observed microstructural characteristics dependent on heating rate and milling condition.

Electronic waste (e-waste) has become a significant environmental concern worldwide due to the rapid advancement of technology and short product lifecycles. Waste-printed electronic boards (WPCBs) contain valuable metals and semiconductors; among them, tin can be recycled and repurposed for sustainable material production. This study presents a potential ecofriendly methodology for the recovery of tin from WPCBs in the form of tin oxide nanostructured powders.

This paper presents the results of a study on the characteristics of semiconductor sensors based on thin SnO films modified with antimony, dysprosium, and silver impurities and dispersed double Pt/Pd catalysts deposited on the surface to detect carbon monoxide (CO). An original technology was developed, and ceramic targets were made from powders of Sn-Sb-O, Sn-Sb-Dy-O, and Sn-Sb-Dy-Ag-O systems synthesized by the sol-gel method. Films of complex composition were obtained by RF magnetron sputtering of the corresponding targets, followed by technological annealing at various temperatures.

Industrial wastewater treatment using UV irradiation in combination with oxidants or catalysts (TiO) has attracted attention as a promising substitute for conventional methods. Studying the preparation and characterization of TiO-SnO nanocomposites with different ratios, as well as their use in the enhanced photocatalytic degradation of acid red 37 dye in aqueous solution under UV irradiation as a model pollutant, are the goals of the research. The crystalline structures of the prepared nanomaterials were confirmed by XRD and the surface morphology of the samples was studied by TEM.

Synthesized SnO nanoparticles (NPs) demonstrate potential capacity to adsorb toxic azo Congo red dye. The formation of rutile phase SnO NPs was confirmed using Powder X-ray diffraction and spherical morphology was corroborated through SEM imaging. TEM analysis confirms average particle size of SnO NPs is nearly 3 nm.
