Indium tin oxide (ITO or tin-doped indium oxide) is a mixture of indium(III) oxide (In2O3) and tin(IV) oxide (SnO2), produced using special firing techniques. It is made of tin-doped indium oxide nanoparticles with a primary particle size of 40nm. By weight, it typically consists of 90% indium oxide (In2O3) and 10% tin oxide (SnO2), or 95% indium oxide and 5% tin oxide. Common colors are pale yellow and blue.
Powdered indium tin oxide (ITO) comes in two colors: pale yellow and blue. However, when deposited as a thin film with a thickness of 1000 – 3000 Angstroms, it becomes transparent. When deposited as a thin film on glass or transparent plastic, it functions as a transparent conductor.
ITO is mainly used in the production of LCD displays, flat panel displays, plasma displays, touch screens, electronic paper, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), solar cells, anti-static coatings, EMI shielding transparent conductive coatings, and various optical coatings.

Nano Indium Tin Oxide Feathers
- Excellent conductivity: The conductive coating made from this material can achieve a resistance as low as 80 Ω·cm.
- High transparency: The coating or thin film produced can achieve a transparency of over 90%.
- Strong weather resistance: Chemically stable and thermally stable, with no degradation in functionality over time.
- Good dispersibility: Easily disperses in water and other solvents, forming stable systems.
Nano ITO Powder's Applications
ITO is primarily used in the production of:
- LCD displays, Flat panel displays, Plasma displays, Touch screens, Electronic paper applications, Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), Solar cells, Anti-static coatings, Transparent conductive coatings for EMI shielding.
- ITO is also used in various optical coatings, most notably: Infrared-reflective coatings (heat mirrors) in architecture, Automotive applications, Sodium vapor lamp glass.
- Other applications include: Gas sensors, Anti-reflective coatings, Bragg reflectors for VCSEL lasers.
- ITO thin film strain gauges can be used in harsh environments and at temperatures above 1400 °C, such as in: Gas turbines, Jet engines, Rocket engines.
Blue Yellow ITO Packaging and Storage
The product is packaged in inert gas-filled anti-static bags or drums, or in vacuum-sealed bags. After receiving, it should be stored in a sealed container in a dry, cool environment. It should not be exposed to air for extended periods to prevent moisture absorption, which could lead to agglomeration and affect its dispersibility and performance.
