Product Description

Strontium Sulfate used in various sector including Oil and gas wells: Strontium sulfate is used as a weight additive in drilling fluids to increase their density.  Detergents: Strontium sulfate is used as a supplement in detergents to provide strontium and sulfate ions. Agriculture: Strontium sulfate is used as a source of strontium and sulfur for plant growth. 

Product Short Description

Strontium sulfate is used as a source of strontium and sulfur for plant growth.

Product Application

Strontium sulfate (SrSO4) is a white crystalline compound, found naturally as the mineral celestite, that is poorly soluble in water but dissolves in nitric and hydrochloric acids. It is used in the production of certain glasses, paints, and ceramics, and as a desiccant. 

Product Dose

Strontium sulfate SrSO4 is the sulfate salt of strontium. It is a white crystalline powder and occurs in nature as the mineral celestine. It is poorly soluble in water to the extent of 1 part in 8800. It is more soluble in dilute HCl and nitric acid and appreciably soluble in alkali chloride solutions.

Remarks
