To produce Na2SnO3, which is widely used in the ceramics and electroplating industries, a novel process for the preparation of sodium stannate from cassiterite concentrates was developed successfully by the authors' group. It was found that sodium stannosilicate (Na8SnSi6O18) was easily formed due to the main gangue of quartz in cassiterite concentrates, which was almost insoluble and decreased the quality of Na2SnO3. The formation and transitions of Na8SnSi6O18 in the SnO2-SiO2-Na2CO3 system roasted under a CO-CO2 atmosphere were determined. The results indicated that the formation of Na8SnSi6O18 could be divided into two steps: SnO2 reacted with Na2CO3 to form Na2SnO3, and then Na2SnO3 was rapidly combined with SiO2 and Na2CO3 to form low melting point Na8SnSi6O18. In addition, Na8SnSi6O18 can be decomposed into Na2SiO3 and Na2SnO3 by using excess Na2CO3.
