Strontium chloride

Strontium chloride (CAS 10476-85-4) is an inorganic salt supplied primarily for its strontium ion content.

Where is Strontium chloride used?

• Pyrotechnics and signal flares: crimson-red flame colorant
• Batteries: electrolyte additive or precursor in strontium-based electrode materials
• Catalyst preparation: precursor to strontium oxide and mixed-metal oxide systems
• Pharmaceutical and specialty chemical production: pH buffer and ionic medium in select synthesis and formulation processes
• It functions as a strontium source where controlled ion delivery, flame coloration, or precursor chemistry is required.

Commercial specifications

• Purity typically 98% to 99%+
• Bulk bags and fiber drums
