Antimony Ingots

Antimony Ingots have high corrosion and oxidation resistance and are ideal for conducting various chemical processes

Introduction

Antimony ingots are metallic blocks composed primarily of antimony, a metalloid element. They are used in various industrial applications, particularly as an alloying agent to enhance the properties of other metals, such as lead, making them stronger and more durable. Antimony ingots also serve as a raw material for producing antimony compounds, which have diverse applications in industries like flame retardants, batteries, and ceramics

Key Properties and Uses

Alloying

Antimony is added to lead to create harder, more robust alloys used in batteries, ammunition, and bearings.

Flame Retardants

Antimony trioxide, derived from antimony, is a crucial component in flame retardant systems for various materials like paper, plastics, textiles, and coatings.

Batteries

Antimony is a key ingredient in lead-acid batteries, where it strengthens battery grids.

Other Uses

Antimony is also used in ceramics, glass, paints, and as a catalyst in the production of PET plastics
 

Everything you need Know

Antimony is non-ferrous metals, metal antimony appearance is silvery white, hexagonal system, the melting point is 630.5 ℃, mohs hardness 3, density of 6.69 g/cm3, it is poor conductor of heat and electricity. Antimony is brittle, easy to grind, no ductility. Not easy reacting with air or oxygen at room temperature. Antimony is insoluble in water and generally does not react with acids.
