Tin Chloride is increasingly becoming a highly favored reducing agent in the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products

Tin Chloride is a yellow crystalline powder with a consistency similar to cream. Tin Chloride has several uses such as a corrosion inhibitor, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiseptic. Tin Chloride is manufactured using various methods. The most common method of production is by cold-rolling to remove flakes from the metal. Tin Chloride can also be dissolved in an aqueous solution (gas). Tin Chloride is popularly used in the production of batteries, electric circuits, and soldered joints. Tin Chloride finds application in industries where high temperatures are encountered such as foundry, rubber, and petroleum.

Tin Chloride is used as a corrosion inhibitor in the iron industry. It is also used as an antifungal and antimicrobial agent and as an oxidizing agent. The white crystalline solid Tin Chloride is used as a drying agent for the production of paper diesel. In fact, it plays a vital role in some of the processes of food processing and pharmaceutical industries. Tin Chloride is used as an oxidizing and dehydrating agent. Furthermore, tin chloride is primarily used as an antiseptic and anti-fungal agent for the leather, textile, and rubber industries. The material is also used as an antioxidant in the pharmaceutical industry to combat oxidative stress in micro-circulation systems. A number of corrosion-resistant alloys containing tin chloride are developed for military applications such as marine and aerospace requirements.

Tin Chloride has great value in the food and beverage industry as a source of trace amounts of chlorine. Trace amounts of chlorine are required for the synthesis of vitamin D, the body's precursor to histamine. The use of tin chloride for the synthesis of Vitamin D is made possible by the reaction between hydrogen and tin chloride. The concentration of chlorine is critical in controlling the body's level of vitamin D. The industrial applications of tin chloride are wide in scope. It can be used in scrap copper and other alloys to reduce weight, improve strength and increase durability. It is also utilized as an oxidizing agent in reducing gas mixtures for gas combustion, and as an antifungal agent and antimicrobial agent in treating infected wounds. Furthermore, in the food and beverage industry, it is used as a stabilizer, reducing the prices of sugar and high fructose corn syrup.
