• Fe₂ O₃:0.075 %

• Pb [total]:0.200% max.

• Color: white

• Tinting strength: low

• Grain size: fine granular

Applications area of sodium antimonate hexahydrate is:

• Glass: sodium antimonate is used in the glass industry as a fining agent or degasser, especially in color television bulbs and optical glass.

• Chemical intermediate: sodium antimonate hexahydrate is used for the production of colloidal antimony pentaoxide used as a flame retardant. It is also used for the production of extremely high purity antimony metal and subsequently high purity antimony trioxide.

• Flame retardant applications: when used with halogen, usually chlorine, sodium antimonate is a fire retardant with very low tinting characteristics. As such it is used in plastics, paints, fiber glass resins and various textile goods.
