White crystalline powder strontium carbonate CAS NO 1633-05-2 using for glass and ceramics

►Description

Strontium carbonate (SrCO3) is a white,odorless, tasteless powder.It is the

carbonate salt of strontium that has the appearance of a white or grey powder. It

occurs in nature as the mineral strontianite.

►Chemical properties

Strontium carbonate is a white, odorless,tasteless powder.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 carbon dioxide, to 1 part in

1,000. It is soluble in dilute acids.

►Preparation

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 (usually

sodium or ammonium carbonates).

For example if sodium carbonate was used in solution with strontium nitrate:

Sr(NO3)2 + Na2CO3 → SrCO3 + 2 NaNO3

►Types of powder

Strontium carbonate coarse powder

Strontium carbonate coarse powder is used in the production of glazes, frits

and for production of strontium pigments. Another application for strontium

carbonate coarse powder is the production of special glass.

Strontium carbonate fine powder

Strontium carbonate fine powder is used in the production of ferrites for

permanent magnets, and in Zinc electrolysis for removal of lead. Strontium

carbonate fine powder is also used in the production of strontium chromate.

Strontium carbonate granular

Strontium carbonate granular is used in the production of display glass and

other glass. Strontium carbonate granular is also used in the metallurgy.

Strontium carbonate standard powder

Strontium carbonate standard powder is used in the production of ferrites for

permanent magnets. Strontium carbonate standard powder is also used for the

production of glazes and enamel frits.
