Isotopes of Strontium: Properties and Applications

The chapter gives an overview of properties and application of stable and radioactive isotopes of strontium.

Strontium isotopes (87 Sr/ 86 Sr) are commonly used to assess the age of Cenozoic dolostones found on many isolated oceanic islands.The possible influence of Rubidium (Rb) content on the 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratios, however, has generally been ignored. This critical issue is assessed by examining the 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratios and elements (Rb, Sr, Al, Ti and K) of …

Strontium

Strontium-90, a radioactive isotope, is a by-product of nuclear reactors and present in nuclear fallout. It has a half-life of 28 years. It is absorbed by bone tissue instead of calcium and can destroy bone marrow and cause cancer. However, it is also useful as it is one of the best high-energy beta-emitters known.

Much attention has been paid to Sr isotopes. Strontium (Sr), the most abundant trace element in rocks, soil, water, and organisms, is an alkaline earth metal with an atomic number of 38. Its geochemical properties are similar to those of Calcium (Ca) which is often replaced in the form of isomorphism (Pathak and Gupta, 2019). Thus, Sr is ...

Strontium isotopes in tap water from the coterminous USA

There are four natural isotopes of Sr, 3 non-radiogenic (84 Sr, 86 Sr, and 88 Sr) and 1 radiogenic, the product of radioactive decay. The radiogenic isotope, 87 Sr, is formed through the β-decay of 87 Rb, which has a half-life of 48.8 × 10 9 years. By convention, measured Sr isotope ratios are reported as 87 Sr/ 86 Sr and calculated as
