Strontium Sulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula SrS. It is a white solid. The compound is an intermediate in the conversion of strontium sulfate, the main strontium ore called celestite, to other more useful compounds.
Strontium sulfide is produced by the reduction of the sulfate above 1000 °C:
SrSO4 + 2 C → SrS + 2 CO2
Applications
It is used for depilatory industry as unhearing agent. It is used for producing of other strontium compounds as an intermediate.
