Abstract
The main objective of this work is to synthesize SnO2 nanoparticles by electrolysis. The experiment is conducted taking dil. HCl of different concentrations and two electrodes [Tin (Sn)] are used for electrolysis .The effect of electrolyte and potentials is studied. The particles obtained after electrolysis are characterized using XRD. The structure of SnO2 by diffractogram is Tetragonal which is in agreement with standard diffraction pattern. From UV-Visible spectrophotometer, the absorption peak of SnO2 is about 207 nm. The product has the size distribution in a range of 25-150 nm.
