Gas-Phase Thermochemistry and Mechanism of Organometallic Tin Oxide CVD Precursors

Development of an analytical method to confirm toxic trimethylated tin in human urine

“…Since use of DMTC has recently extended to the advanced electronics industries [2], care in handling of DMTC is required. Our analytical method to confirm TMT in urine samples will be useful for elucidating of the mechanism of toxic biotransformation.…”

“…Dimethyltin dichloride (DMTC) is widely used as a heat stabilizer in rigid polyvinylchloride resins [1,2]. Recently, DMTC has been used to produce transparent conductive films for liquid crystal panels [2].…”

“…Recently, DMTC has been used to produce transparent conductive films for liquid crystal panels [2]. Among the methylated tins, trimethylated tin (TMT) is the most toxic, and its marked neurotoxicity in humans has been demonstrated in cases of accidental exposures [3][4][5][6].…”

Precursors for the Formation of Tin(IV) Oxide and Related Materials

“…Organotin halides represent something of a compromise between the extremes of SnCl 4 and R 4 Sn and have been widely studied, particularly Me 2 SnCl 2 and BuSnCl 3 . The gas phase chemistry of the reactions between these organometallics and oxygen sources (O 2 , H 2 O and their mixtures) has been reviewed.…”

Computational fluid dynamic modeling of tin oxide deposition in an impinging chemical vapor deposition reactor

“…The numerical simulation based on CFD is able to provide quantitative information of flow behavior and species transport, but typically relies to a large extent on the thermodynamic data, reaction mechanism, and transport properties. Monobutyltin trichloride (or MBTC) used for SnO 2 deposition in the glass industry, which is of interest in the current work, has very limited data reported in the literature [6][7][8][9][10][11]. While it is experimentally shown that the reaction of MBTC with oxygen is accelerated in the presence of water, the function of water in the decomposition and/or oxidation of MBTC, is not fully understood.…”
