About Antimony
Antimony is used for the production of flame retardants. It is found in its ore form and usually appears as a lustrous tin-white metal. Antimony is primarily mined in China and the country holds the majority of its reserves. In 2009, the government of China has classified antimony as a strategic metal and a rare element of the earth, resulting in supply constraints worldwide. Apart from flame retardants, the other major applications of antimony are in lead batteries, as an alloy strengthening agent, a catalyst, and in ceramics. In 2014, owing to supply constraints worldwide, the EU and the British Geological Survey listed Antimony at the top of the list for metals and minerals, thus identifying it as one of the most precious and scarce metals in the world.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Antimony Market to grow at a CAGR of 5.03 percent over the period 2014-2019.
