product description
Tin ingot properties: silver-white metal, soft, with good ductility. The melting point of 232 ° C, the density of 7.29 g / cm3. Non-toxic
Characteristics
1. It is a silvery, soft metal that is similar to lead and zinc but looks brighter. Its hardness is relatively low, and it can be cut with a knife. It has good ductility, especially at a temperature of 100 ° C, it can be formed into a very thin tin foil, the thickness can be as thin as 0.04 mm or less.
2. It is a low melting point metal with a melting point of only 232 ° C. Therefore, it can be melted with a candle flame to form a liquid liquid with a good fluidity like mercury.
3. Pure tin has a peculiar performance: when the tin and tin plates are bent, they emit a special burst of sound that sounds like a cry. This sound is caused by the friction between the crystals. Such friction occurs when the crystal is deformed. The strange thing is that if you change the alloy of tin, it will not make such a cry when it is deformed. Therefore, people often use this characteristic of tin to identify whether a piece of metal is tin.
Main use: It can be used as a coating material and has a wide range of applications in the food, machinery, electrical, automotive, aerospace and other industrial sectors. In the production of float glass, the molten glass floats on the surface of the molten tin pool to cool and solidify.
