- Strontium carbonate (SrCO3) is the carbonate salt of strontium that has the appearance of a white or grey powder. It occurs in nature as the mineral strontianite. Strontium carbonate is a white, odorless, tasteless powder. It's chemical makeup is: C 8.14% O 32.51% Sr 59.35%. Being a carbonate, it is a weak base and therefore is reactive with acids. It is otherwise stable and safe to work with. It is practically insoluble in water (1 part in 100,000). The solubility is increased significantly if the water is saturated with CO2, to 1 part in 1,000. It is soluble in dilute acids.
- Other than the natural occurrence as a mineral, strontium carbonate is prepared synthetically in one of two manners. First of which is from naturally occurring celestine also known as strontium sulfate (SrSO4) or by using soluble strontium salts by the reaction in solution with a soluble carbonate salt.
- Celestite is converted to SrCO3, the common commercial form of strontium. The black ash method (alternatively known as the calcining method) and the soda method (also known as direct conversion) are the two most common recovery techniques for strontium. The black ash method produces chemical grade strontium carbonates, which are 98% strontium carbonate and 2% byproducts and impurities. The soda ash method produces technical grade strontium carbonates, containing at least 97% strontium carbonate. The black ash method is the preferred means of strontium carbonate production because it yields a highergrade product.
- The most common use is as an inexpensive colorant in fireworks. Strontium and its salts emit a brilliant red color in flame. Unlike other strontium salts, the carbonate salt is generally preferred because of its cost and the fact that it is not hygroscopic. Its ability to neutralize acid is also very helpful in pyrotechnics. Another similar application is in road flares.
- Strontium carbonate is used for electronic applications. It is used for manufacturing CTV to absorb electrons resulting from the cathode.
It it used in the preparation of iridescent glass, luminous paints, strontium oxide or strontium salts and in refining sugar.It is also used in the manufacturing of strontium ferrites for permanent magnets which are used in loud speakers and door magnets. - The effect of strontium on bone is likely related to its similarity to calcium, a mineral with a known biological value. Strontium is structurally similar to calcium and can replace calcium in the bone mineral matrix. A key difference is that calcium (as an essential nutrient) is homeostatically controlled, while strontium is not.
- Most of the strontium produced today is used in the manufacture of color television picture tubes. It is also used to refine zinc and is combined with iron to make magnets. Two strontium compounds, strontium carbonate (SrCO3) and strontium nitrate (Sr(NO3)2), burn with a bright, red flame
- Strontium-90, a radioactive isotope of strontium, is a common product of nuclear explosions. It has a half-life of about 28.8 years and decays into yttrium-90 through beta decay. Strontium-90 is especially deadly since it has a relatively long half-life, is strongly radioactive and is absorbed by the body, where it accumulates in the skeletal system.
