Biosymetic supplies strontium salts designed for technical, industrial, and advanced material applications requiring controlled chemistry and performance.
We offer high-purity Strontium salts, including Strontium Carbonate, Strontium Sulfate, Strontium Chloride, Strontium Nitrate, and Strontium Silicate. Each of these compounds possesses specialised and valuable applications, serving as a critical raw material in key global sectors.
One of the oldest, yet still most significant, uses of strontium is in the manufacture of specialised glass. Strontium-containing glass is valued for its ability to absorb harmful radiation (particularly X-rays). Historically used in cathode ray tube () televisions, it is now employed in the production of safety glass, laser equipment, and high-performance optical components.
Strontium Carbonate and Nitrate are utilised in the manufacturing of industrial glazes, technical ceramics, electrical insulators, and refractory materials. Here, they act as stabilisers and quality enhancers, improving the chemical and thermal resistance of the final product.
Strontium Sulfate and other strontium salts are used in drilling mud formulations, aiding in pressure control, and preventing the formation of insoluble scale deposits in oil wells, thereby protecting equipment, and maintaining flow.
Strontium serves as an effective additive in the production of aluminium and magnesium alloys, and is also used in the manufacturing of zinc ingots to refine the grain structure and improve mechanical properties.
Strontium compounds are added to paints and coatings to enhance various properties and are specifically employed as anti-corrosive agents (rust inhibitors) to significantly reduce metal degradation and extend the lifespan of painted surfaces.
Strontium salts, especially Strontium Nitrate and Strontium Chloride, are crucial in pyrotechnics due to their ability to produce a high-intensity, vibrant red flame. Strontium is responsible for one of the purest and most stable red colours used in the industry.
