Latest developments in the antimony industry:
Antimony refers to a chemical element with the symbol Sb (from Latin: stibium) and atomic number 51. It is a lustrous gray metalloid that exhibits both non-metallic and metallic properties. It is commonly found in nature as the sulfide mineral stibnite (Sb2S3). This element has a long history of use dating back to ancient times when it was used in medicines and cosmetics. It is primarily used in the production of flame retardants due to its ability to enhance the flame resistance of various metals. It is also a significant component in the manufacturing of lead-acid batteries, alloys, and semiconductors. Small amounts of antimony are added to lead to an increase its strength and hardness, thereby making it valuable in the production of bullets and cable sheathing.
