Several procedures for the preparation of colloidal SnO2 powders, consisting of particles of narrow size distribution and of various morphologies, are described. The hydrolysis of SnCl4 aerosols in the presence of gaseous ammonia produces poorly crystalline SnO2 spheres of modal diameters < 2 mu m. Depending on the preparation conditions, the forced hydrolysis of acidic (HCl) SnCl4 solutions yields either prismatic particles or spherulites composed of tiny, strongly aggregated, elongated subunits. In both cases the particles are in the nanometer size range (< 100 nm) having crystalline rutile structure. Rod-like SnO2 particles (similar to 0.3 mu m) of good crystallinity can be obtained by hydrolysis of SnCl4 solutions in the presence of formamide. It is concluded that the hydrolysis of dissolved SnCl4 tends to produce elongated SnO2 particles which, depending on the experimental conditions, may be at different aggregation states.
