Antimony Market to reach USD 2.9 Billion by 2032 – Future Market Insights
Non-metallic form of antimony is grey powder. Antimony is a chemical element and exists in both metallic and non-metallic forms. The metallic form is bright silver and brittle material. Antimony is a stable element in dry air and is inert to acids and alkalis. Antimony expands on cooling and is a bad conductor of electricity and heat. Antimony is among the oldest known element to mankind and has been used for varied applications since 4000 BC. Antimony is available freely in nature and also can be extracted from ores such as valentinite and stibnite.
The global antimony market is likely to be worth
US$ 2 Billion in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 2.9 Billion by 2032, growing
at a 4% CAGR from 2022 to 2032.
Elemental antimony is present in relatively small amount
owing to high reactivity of antimony with sulfur, lead, silver and copper.
Stibnite is the commonly used ore for extracting antimony, ores of antimony are
crushed and then antimony is hand sorted from the crushed ore. Owing to large
reserves and cheap and abundant labor available in China, China dominates the
global antimony production. Antimony is also recycled from lead acid batteries,
recycled antimony is among other major sources for antimony and is fast gaining
acceptance as an easy source of antimony.

Metallic antimony is brittle in nature and hence has to be
combined with other metals or alloys for high strength applications. Antimony
trioxide is the commonly used compound of antimony for various commercial
applications such as production of plastics, rubber, textile, pigments, glass,
etc. Antimony is widely used with lead as a reinforcement to increase the
strength of lead in applications such as ammunitions. Antimony is also widely
used in lead acid batteries which are among the dominant applications for
antimony. Other application of antimony includes production of low friction
applications, flame proofing materials and glass among several others. Major
end user industries of antimony include automobiles, paints, building and
construction and defense among others.
Flame retardants followed by lead acid batteries dominate
the global demand for antimony the trend is anticipated to continue during the
forecast period. Increasing demand for flame retardants in several end user
industries such as plastic has been among foremost factors driving demand for
antimony.Lead acid batteries are used in various industries including
automobiles, marine, etc. Increasing demand for electric vehicles is expected
to drive demand for antimony during the forecast period. Major end user
industries for antimony include consumer goods such as automobile and textile
among others.
Therefore, macroeconomic factors such as GDP growth and
purchase power parity are also among major growth drivers for antimony market.
Exposure to antimony poses severe health hazards including breathing disorders,
skin irritation, and lung cancer among others. Antimony also leads to several
environmental hazards which have led to surge in number of regulations to
regulate antimony consumption which have been restraining market growth for
antimony.
Asia Pacific dominates the global antimony market primarily
owing to high demand in China. Over 80% of the global antimony production is
controlled by China; moreover high GDP growth in the region is expected to
drive antimony market during the forecast period. Demand for antimony in
North America and Europe is anticipated to grow at a sluggish rate primarily
owing stringent regulations in the regions.
Some manufacturers in the antimony market include Shanghai Metal
Corporation, Beijing North Xinyuan Electrical Carbon Products Co.Ltd and
Qingdao Glory International Trading Co. among several others.
