Does anyone know the name of a tin oxide manufacturer in England? A
large retail pottery supplier won't reveal=20
the manufacturers name. We are looking to buy a 50 or 100 pound barrel
of ceramic grade tin oxide. I have been unable to find such a source.
If anyone knows please let me know!

Bill,
Don't know if this will help you, but I always look up the MSDS sheets
from the distributor and it gives the supplier:

Just google Laguna MSDS or Standard Clay MSDS, etc.
It gives the name address phone etc.
Hope it helps,

I just received a pound of tin oxide I ordered from a supplier. It came i=

n a=3D20
ziplock bag and it's yellow. I don't mean "off-white". It is really yello=
=3D
w. I don't=3D20
think this is close to being right. My last lot of tin oxide was white. I=
=3D
looked up=3D20
tin oxide data sheets from Keeling Walker from stoke on trent. It is desc=
=3D
ribed=3D20
as a white powder with a .3 micron average particle size.
Anyone have this experience before?

I use tin primarily as my opacifier and have never seen it come in
anything but a slightly gray white. They probably sent you the wrong
material. I'd take a thimble of engobe, add a little bit of the "tin"
and test it just to make sure that they don't add an organic colorant
for color coding like a duncan glaze that will fire out.

Rod,
It sounds to me like you received the wrong material - or it may have
gotten contaminated along the way somewhere.

Get straight back to the supplier pronto and get it sorted. I spent 25 year=
s
as a supplier and Tin Oxide was *always* grey/white; you've got the wrong
stuff!!

AFAIK, that can't be tin oxide. What it
*might* be is a tin-lead oxide, which the
glass-workers use to get a bright, lemon
yellow color.
