Strontium Hydroxide Octahydrate
Sr(OH)₂·8H₂O | CAS: 1311-10-0 | HS: 28259090
Product Description
Strontium Hydroxide Octahydrate is a moderately strong inorganic base used in specialty chemical synthesis, lubricant manufacturing, and the strontium saccharate sugar-refining process. Its high solubility relative to barium hydroxide makes it suitable for applications requiring a dissolved strontium base source. MITCHEM supplies technical and pure grades with full CoA and MSDS documentation for export to lubricant grease manufacturers and chemical processors.
Applications by Industry
Used in the production of strontium-soap greases for high-temperature and water-resistant lubrication applications where sodium or lithium soap greases are insufficient.
Serves as a strontium base source in the synthesis of strontium salts, strontium titanate, and other functional strontium compounds.
Used in the strontium saccharate process for sugar purification from molasses; niche application in specialty sugar processing.
Used in specialty glass batch as a source of strontium oxide, improving density and reducing melting temperature in certain glass compositions.
