Strontium Hydride Description
Strontium Hydride (CAS: 13598-33-9) is generally immediately available in most volumes. High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered. Hydride compounds are used often used as portable sources of hydrogen gas.
Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) produces many standard grades when applicable, including Mil Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade, USP and EP/BP (European Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia) and follows applicable ASTM testing standards. Typical and custom packaging is available. Additional technical, research, and safety (MSDS) information is available as is a Reference Calculator for converting relevant units of measurement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Is Strontium Hydride ionic?
This hydride is a strongly ionic insulator solid.
- Is Strontium Hydride soluble?
Strontium hydroxide is slightly soluble in water.
- Is strontium poisonous or hazardous?
There are no harmful effects of stable strontium in humans at the levels typically found in the environment. The only chemical form of stable strontium that is very harmful by inhalation is strontium chromate, but this is because of toxic chromium and not strontium itself.
