Used in the refining of beet sugar, where it helps separate sugar from non-sugar components by forming soluble complexes with sucrose. Historically applied in the production of strontium salts and in certain types of lubricants. Utilized in ceramic and glass applications to introduce strontium content for enhanced properties like heat resistance. Explored in air purification systems due to its ability to absorb carbon dioxide, forming strontium carbonate. Employed in water treatment processes to reduce acidity and control pH. Occasionally used in laboratory settings and organic synthesis as a strong base, particularly where high basicity is needed without reacting with silica.
