Antimony is mainly used as an alloying element to harden other soft metals such as lead, copper, tin, and zinc. High-purity antimony is also used in semiconductors. Another area of application is the production of flame retardants. Paints, textiles, and plastics with flame-retardant or non-flammable properties are important for the automotive and electrical engineering industries, among others. In the form of oxide, this semimetal is used as a catalyst in the production of PET plastic.
Why could antimony be an interesting investment?
- Antimony consumption in the photovoltaic (PV) sector is expected to reach around 50,000 tons this year, accounting for almost one-third of global antimony consumption.
- At the current rate of production, antimony is likely to be one of the rarest metals by 2050.
