Strontium Hydroxide Description
Strontium hydroxide, Sr(OH)₂, is a corrosive alkali. It consists of one strontium ion and two hydroxide ions. It is synthesised by combining a strontium salt with a strong base. Sr(OH)₂ is available in anhydrous, monohydrate, or octahydrate form.
Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) produces many standard grades. These grades include Mil Spec, ACS, reagent and technical grade, food, agricultural and pharmaceutical grade, optical grade, USP and EP/BP (European and British Pharmacopoeia). They comply with relevant ASTM testing standards. Typical and customised packaging options are provided. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information and a unit conversion calculator are available.
