Tin triphosphide is a binary inorganic compound of tin metal and phosphorus with the chemical formula SnP3.[1]
Preparation[edit]
Tin triphosphide can be formed from the fusion of stoichiometric amounts of both elements at 580 °C:
- Sn + 3P → SnP3
Physical properties[edit]
Tin triphosphide forms crystals of trigonal crystal system, spatial group R3m with six formula units in a unit cell of dimensions a = 7.378Å and c = 10.512Å.[2][3]
Insoluble in H2O and HCl. Soluble in HNO3.[4]
Uses[edit]
SnP3 can be used in high-performance energy storage devices.[5][6]
