Antimony oxide‍ is a commonly used chemical, and it is divided into antimony trioxide and antimony pentoxide. These products are not only white crystalline powders, but also have high melting and boiling points, so they can be used in It plays an effective flame retardant role in white paints and plastics. So, when you need to use antimony oxide, how should you choose it correctly?

From some previous news reports, we can know that the market supply of antimony raw materials is relatively tight, which means that the production and consumption of products using antimony as raw materials will also be affected, especially for products with a wide range of uses and good performance. The effect of antimony trioxide is great. So what are the advantages of this chemical product, which is very popular in the chemical and polyester industries?

Reliable chemical products are inseparable from their high quality. Low-quality chemical products will not only cause problems such as long process cycle and low efficiency, but also different problems during use. Antimony trioxide products with hidden dangers are absolutely not an option. Therefore, when customers inspect related products, whether they have high quality is the key that customers cannot ignore. In order to select high-quality products, customers need to consider the following points when selecting related products:

Nowadays, with the transition of the times, we can see that science and technology are constantly progressing and developing. In the past, spaceflight once again launched exploration and challenges to space, and later, in the fields that require scientific and technological facilities, they are making great strides. and innovation. And some compounds that cannot be ignored have also appeared in front of people, such as antimony oxide, a crystal that has a good performance in most superconducting materials.

1. Flame retardant: The main use of antimony is to use its oxide (antimony trioxide) to make refractory materials. The process by which antimony trioxide forms antimony halides can slow down combustion. In addition to halogen-containing polymeric flame retardants, antimony trioxide is almost always used with halide flame retardants. These flame retardants are often used in children's clothing, toys, aircraft and car seat covers, etc. They are also commonly used as additives for polyester resins in the fiberglass composite (commonly known as FRP) industry, such as light aircraft engine covers.

Recently, the price of antimony ingot in Europe has stabilized at US,600-14,200/ton, up 45% from August last year; the harm to the environment and human body caused by antimony smelting has forced the government to strictly control its output. The antimony industry was reorganized by the joint efforts of the departments. Hundreds of illegal antimony smelters and small and medium-sized workshops were forcibly banned, resulting in a sharp reduction in the antimony market supply.
