Theory and Background #

Strontium oxide, as is typical for group II oxides, is very basic, and will absorb CO₂ readily to form surface carbonates.

Experimental Advice #

If analysing strontium oxides, GCIS etching may be required to remove surface carbonates. Sr carbonate does not decompose until ~ 875 degrees Celsius, so heat treatment in vacuo is unlikely to be an option.

Data Analysis Guidance #

Strontium has no particularly unusual features that complicate fitting.
