Current State of Studies on Synthesis and Application of Zinc Stannate (Review)

Novel Highly Dispersed Additive for Proton-Conducting Composites

“…For instance, zinc stannate has recently been utilized as anode material for sodium-ion and lithium-ion batteries [1][2][3]. Additionally, several works [4][5][6] have highlighted the potential for stannates as materials for supercapacitors and solar cell electrodes. Because of its chemical reactivity, excellent electronic properties, and perovskite structure, ZnSnO 3 is widely used for gas and organic compound sensors [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…Zinc metastannate ZnSnO 3 has an orthorhombic elementary lattice with a perovskite-like crystal structure, while zinc orthostannate Zn 2 SnO 4 has a cubic lattice with a spinel-type structure. Various methods are used to obtain these compounds, including low-temperature ion exchange, sol-gel technology, and coprecipitation followed by thermal treatment [4,[28][29][30][31][32]. Among them, the sol-gel method is the most commonly used approach due to its ease of control, low-temperature, and high efficiency for obtaining various homogeneous nanostructures.…”

Enhancement of CO gas sensing performance by Mn-doped porous ZnSnO3 microspheres

“…In this regard, ternary ABO 3 perovskite 6,7 structured MOS sensors have attracted the scientific community over the binary MOS sensors due to the presence of multiple cation sites for doping materials and exhibiting more potential for enhancing the device performance in gas sensing applications. Out of various choices, the zinc stannate (ZnSnO 3 ) ternary compound (n-type MOS) is a potential candidate due to its high electron mobility, conductivity, good stability, and attractive physical and chemical properties 8 compared to binary counterparts ZnO and SnO 2 . These properties enable this material to be employed in various applications such as Li-ion batteries, 9 solar cells, 10 photocatalysts, 11 gas sensing, etc.…”

Ficus Carica Mediated Synthesis of Simulated Solar Light Driven Nano-sized Zinc Stannate Photocatalyst for the Degradation of Methylene Blue

“…The Zn2SnO4 depict wide-band semiconductor oxides with the conductivity of n-type, (transparent within the visible light region), they are optimistic for applications in the fields of gas sensors, lithium-ion batteries, solar cells, transparent conductors, lead-free ferroelectrics and photo catalysis [11]. Depending on the molar ratio of the primary components (Sn, Zn and O), this material exists in two states: ZnSnO3 of the perovskite-type structure and Zn2SnO4 of the spineltype structure [12]. Different approaches are used for the preparation of zinc stannate nanocomposite including thermal evaporation calcinations, sol-gel synthesis, mechanical grinding, hydrothermal, and ion-exchange methods.…”
