Product Information

• Name: Antimony(v) oxide - 99.9%
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Antimony(v) oxide is an inorganic compound that is used as a corrosion inhibitor and antimicrobial agent. It is a hydrated form of antimony trioxide, consisting of two hydroxyl groups. Antimony(v) oxide has been shown to be effective against bacteria, fungi, and viruses in flow systems with a high pH. The reaction solution for the production of antimony(v) oxide includes sodium carbonate and hydrogen fluoride. This process also yields pentoxide and zirconium oxide as byproducts. Antimony(v) oxide has been shown to inhibit the activity of certain enzymes, such as proteases and lipases, due to its ability to bind to sulfhydryl groups on the enzyme surface.
