Description

Strontium chloride hexahydrate is a precursor to prepare strontium chromate which is used as a corrosion inhibitor for aluminum. It is involved in the synthesis of cadmium sulfide core photocatalytic nanoparticles. It is used as a red coloring agent in pyrotechnics. Furthermore, it is utilized in glass-making and metallurgy. In the medical field, its radioactive isotope strontium-89 is used for the treatment of bone cancer. It acts as a catalyst in the conversion of ketones and aldehydes to the corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides using aqueous hydrogen peroxide.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
