General description

Strontium chloride hexahydrate (SrCl2·6H2O) is a hydrated alkaline earth metal chloride. On γ-irradiation at 77°K, it affords a radical having e.s.r. parameters resembling with HO2. Its chlorine electric field gradient (EFG) and chemical shift (CS) tensors have been evaluated by employing solid-state 35/37Cl NMR spectroscopy.

Application

The product was used as a source of Sr2+ ions, to evaluate the working of a Flow Electrolysis Cell used in Rapid Ion Transfer (FECRIT) electrochemical solvent extraction method. Supernatant solutions of SrCl2 may also be used as supplier of Sr to prepare fibrous strontium substituted hydroxyapatite, a potential reinforcement for biocomposites.
