STRONTIUM NITRATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Strontium nitrate is a white, crystalline compound with the chemical formula Sr(NO3)2. It is used in various industrial and chemical applications, primarily as a colorant in pyrotechnics and fireworks, where it produces bright red flames. Strontium nitrate is also employed as an oxidizing agent in certain chemical reactions and in the manufacturing of specialty glass and ceramics. Proper handling and storage of strontium nitrate are essential to maintain its quality and prevent moisture absorption, as it is highly reactive and can decompose upon contact with water or air. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial to prevent skin and eye irritation and other health hazards. Its versatility and effectiveness in producing vivid colors in pyrotechnics and its role as an oxidizing agent make strontium nitrate a valuable chemical in various applications, although its use requires careful control to prevent hazards.
