Manufacturing
Strontium peroxide is created by passing oxygen over heated strontium oxide. In a manner similar to barium peroxide, SrO2 decomposes to SrO and O2 at temperature, although this temperature is far lower than BaO2. As a consequence, SrO2 is harder to manufacture as the lower temperatures kinetically inhibit the peroxidation reaction on the atomic scale.
