Antimony ingots are found in many places in our lives, but we don't know what they are, or don't know anything about them. So today, let's learn what antimony ingots are.
Refined antimony, also known as antimony ingot, is mainly used as alloy hardener for metallurgy, battery and military industry, is also one of the raw materials for the production of antimony oxide, antimony ingot can also be used in the printing industry, lead, cable sheathing, solder and sliding bearing.
But according to the purity of antimony ingot can be divided into 0 antimony, 1 antimony and 2 antimony. Let's see how they differ
Antimony 0
The content of antimony is 99.90%, which is an important raw material for the production of antimony oxide, and also the hardener of alloy in metallurgy and battery industry. It can be used in movable type printing industry, lead material, cable sheathing, solder and plain bearing and other industries. Unlike antimony No. 1, although the appearance is a block cuboidal hexahedral metal ingot, antimony No. 0 is a glossy silver-white solid, which is not only very pure, but also can be used as a dopant in the manufacture of V cluster compound semiconductors, high purity alloys, and cold elements and germanium single crystals.
Antimony No.1
Antimony content of 99.85%, is an important raw material for the production of antimony oxide, but also metallurgy, battery industry alloy hardener, can be used in the printing industry, lead, cable sheathing, solder and sliding bearing, and can also be widely used in ink, rubber, paint, coatings, ceramics, chemical fiber and pharmaceutical food industries. The appearance is a block truncated cone-hexahedron metal ingot, unlike antimony 0, antimony 1 is a silvery white solid, not glossy.
Antimony No. 2
The content of antimony is 99.50%, it is an important raw material for the production of antimony oxide, and also the hardener of alloy in metallurgy and battery industry. It can be used in movable type printing industry, lead material, cable sheathing, solder and plain bearing and other industries. The appearance is silver - white block crystal, the surface has a beautiful pattern.
