Applications:

  • 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
