Strontium hydroxide, with the chemical formula Sr(OH)₂, is an inorganic compound characterized by its white, crystalline appearance. It is a strong base, soluble in water, and forms a strongly alkaline solution upon dissolution. Strontium hydroxide is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, which can lead to the formation of a saturated solution if left exposed. This compound is typically encountered in two forms: the anhydrous form and the octahydrate form, the latter being more common in laboratory settings. Strontium hydroxide is used in various applications, including as a reagent in chemical synthesis, in the production of strontium salts, and in the manufacture of glass and ceramics. Additionally, it has applications in the field of agriculture as a soil amendment. Due to its alkaline nature, it can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, necessitating appropriate safety precautions during handling.
