Used as a strong oxidizing agent in industrial processes, such as the production of strontium salts (including strontium carbonate and strontium nitrate)
In the manufacturing of fireworks and pyrotechnics to impart a vivid red color upon ignition
Used in the preparation of strontium-based ceramics, specialized glass, and high-performance coatings
Employed in the bleaching of textiles and paper products in large-scale industrial applications
Used in the production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and other chemical intermediates
Applied in the oil and gas industry for well drilling and completion fluids
Hazard Identification:
GHS Classification: Oxidizing Solid (Category 2)
Hazard Statements:
H272: May intensify fire; oxidizer
H302: Harmful if swallowed
H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage
Precautionary Statements:
P210: Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces. No smoking
P280: Wear protective gloves, protective clothing, and eye protection
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes
Storage and Safety:
Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from flammable materials and reducing agents. Keep containers tightly closed
Handling: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, eye protection, protective clothing). Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Ensure proper ventilation in work areas
Fire Safety: Strontium peroxide is a strong oxidizer. Mixing it with organic materials or reducing agents can lead to vigorous combustion. In case of fire, use dry chemical extinguishers, dry sand, or alcohol-resistant foam. Do not use water or carbon dioxide extinguishers
