Antimony pentoxide

Antimony pentoxide (CAS 1314-60-9 ), also known as antimonic oxide, is an inorganic compound used primarily as a flame retardant synergist in polymer and textile systems. Unlike antimony trioxide, it is preferred in applications requiring a halogen-free or low-halogen approach, and in systems where coloration or surface compatibility is a concern. In plastics and polymer compounding, it functions as a synergist alongside halogenated flame retardants to improve fire resistance ratings in wire insulation and cable jacketing. Textile and paper manufacturers apply it in back-coating formulations to meet fire safety standards for upholstery, curtains, and industrial fabrics used in various sectors. In electronics, it is incorporated into printed circuit board laminates and encapsulant resins where flame retardancy must meet UL 94 or IEC standards for safety. Building and construction applications include flame-retardant coatings and sealants where low smoke generation is a critical specification requirement for modern projects. Antimony pentoxide is supplied as a white to pale yellow powder or as a colloidal aqueous dispersion, with the colloidal form preferred for textile and coating applications. Standard grades include technical and industrial purity levels, with particle size and dispersion stability being key specification parameters for procurement and formulation.
