Strontium bromate

Impact sensitivities of mixtures of red phosphorus with various oxidants were determined in a direct drop-ball method, which indicated higher sensitivities than those determined with an indirect striker mechanism. Mixtures with silver chlorate were most sensitive, those with bromates, chlorates and chlorites were extremely sensitive, and mixtures with sodium peroxide and potassium superoxide were more sensitive than those with barium, calcium, magnesium, strontium or zinc peroxides. Mixtures with perchlorates or iodates had sensitivities comparable to those of unmixed explosives, such as lead azide, 3,5-dinitrobenzenediazonium-2-oxide etc. 

So far, only the bromites of barium, lithium, and strontium have been prepared,2 by heating the corresponding bromate and bromide together. The method should be applicable to other bromites as well. So far, very little is known of these salts, except that heating produces the bromide... 

Oxygen may also be obtaiued by heating the chlorates of other metals, notably barium,1 calcium,2 strontium,3 lead,4 and silver,5 or by decomposition of metallic bromates and iodates.6...
