Sr2 B5 H2 O11

Sr₂B₅H₂O₁₁ is a strontium borate hydrate ceramic compound belonging to the family of boron-oxygen ceramics with alkaline earth metal constituents. This material exists primarily in the research domain as a potential functional ceramic, with the borate framework offering prospects for applications requiring specific thermal, optical, or chemical properties typical of borate glass-ceramics and crystalline borates. While not widely established in mainstream industrial production, strontium borates are investigated for their potential in thermal management, radiation shielding, and specialized optical applications where the combination of strontium's density and boron's neutron absorption properties may provide advantages over conventional alternatives.
