This paper explores the use of patents as a source for the history of science by focusing on radioactivity-related patents issued in Spain in the period 1900-1936. The relevance of this source and its coherence with other historical records is particularly assessed, as well as practical aspects related to its access, analysis and interpretation. The study, mainly based on the analysis of the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (OEPM) database, reveals major trends in the uses of radioactive elements as industrial products and confirms the lack of a national industry of radium.
