There are different types of sn grades such as technical grade, reagent grade, food grade, lab grade. The guides about sn here say the type of grade doesn't matter as long as the purity of the sn is at least 95%. I'm asking this because I'm still not sure about it and I want to see others opinions about this. I got sn from DMC but my parents found out and it and they took it away, their sn is food grade, at least that's what they say on their website. I ordered another package of sn from a different company, from BO, they're from Germany but they sell sn from the polish source BM. I got one package of 1 kg of sn, they say it has at least 98% purity on their website but they don't mention the grade type

I read the first page and some other pages from there but there are over 300 pages of replies, it's too much and I didn't see any concrete answer about grades. Vizzy's guide said the type of grades don't matter if the sn has at least 95% purity, other people said this as well so maybe that's true

For the purpose any grades are fine - that's how I understand it. Food grade is extra pure - we usually don't want impurities (like heavy metals for example) in our daily food.

I understand. It's not mentioned on BO's website what grade the sn is, although they say it has at least 98% purity, that's why I wasn't sure about this
