Antimony

Description:
Antimony, with the chemical symbol Sb and CAS number 7440-36-0, is a metalloid that exhibits properties characteristic of both metals and non-metals. It has a silvery-white appearance and is brittle, making it difficult to work with in its pure form. Antimony is primarily used in alloys, particularly with lead, to enhance hardness and mechanical strength. It is also utilized in flame retardants, batteries, and semiconductor applications due to its ability to conduct electricity. Antimony has a relatively low melting point compared to many metals and can exist in several allotropes, with the most stable form being a metallic, crystalline structure. Chemically, it can form various compounds, including oxides and sulfides, and it typically exhibits oxidation states of -3, +3, and +5. While antimony is not considered highly toxic, certain compounds can pose health risks, necessitating careful handling and regulation in industrial applications. Its unique properties and versatility make it an important element in various technological and industrial processes.
