Antimony pentoxide (Sb₂O₅) is a yellow, odorless powder that is slightly soluble in water. It is primarily used as a flame retardant synergist, enhancing the effectiveness of halogenated flame retardants in various materials. Additionally, it serves as a catalyst in certain chemical reactions and is utilized in the production of antimony-containing glass. Antimony pentoxide is a Flame Retardant Synergist.

Antimony pentoxide is commonly used in conjunction with halogenated flame retardants to improve their efficacy in materials such as textiles, plastics, paper, and rubber.
It acts as a catalyst in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a widely used polyester in the textile and packaging industries.
Serves as a precursor in the synthesis of other antimony compounds, including antimony trioxide, which is used in various applications such as flame retardants and catalysts.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible substances such as strong acids and bases.
Available in polyethylene bags, fiber drums, and bulk containers. Contact suppliers for specific packaging options and sizes.
