Antimony Supplier in Malaysia for Metal and Alloy Buyers
- Also known as
- Antimony Metal
- Metallic Antimony
- Sb
Antimony supplier enquiries in Malaysia for elemental Sb typically come from alloy producers, metal processors and specialist materials buyers. Antimony is a brittle silvery-grey metalloid supplied in ingot, lump, granule, shot or powder form, with purity and impurity limits set by the intended process.
Metallurgical ingot and lump are practical charging forms for lead, tin and other antimony-bearing alloys. Smaller pieces and granules support measured additions, while high-purity metal and powder serve electronic-material, research and controlled processing requirements.
This page covers elemental antimony only. Antimony trioxide, the white powder used in flame-retardant and polymer systems, is a separate compound, and food or supplement ingredients must not be treated as grades of antimony metal.
Send the physical form, antimony purity, named impurity limits, quantity, application and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, together with the current antimony price and its stated validity period.

Antimony grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metallurgical antimony ingot | cast ingot or broken metal lumps | — | Controlled addition to lead, tin and other metal melts where antimony is specified to adjust hardness and alloy composition. Buyers should provide the required antimony purity and maximum limits for critical impurities. | Ingot or lump handling format and protective packing are confirmed with the quotation. |
| High-purity antimony metal | ingot, pieces, granules or shot | — | Electronic-material, specialty alloy and research requirements that need tighter impurity control than a general metallurgical grade. State the required purity basis and named impurity limits with the enquiry. | Packing is confirmed against the purity grade, piece form and order quantity. |
| Antimony metal powder | dark grey metallic powder | — | Powder-processing, specialty metallurgical and chemical-conversion work in which particle size and elemental purity are part of the written specification. Powder is not interchangeable with antimony oxide. | Sealed packing and unit size are confirmed for the quoted particle grade. |

Safety and handling
Keep antimony dry and protected from contamination. Store powder in closed containers, prevent airborne dust during handling, and follow the safety information supplied for the quoted form and grade.
Common questions about Antimony
What is antimony metal used for?
Elemental antimony is mainly specified as an alloying input for lead, tin and other metals, including bearing alloys, selected solders and battery-grid compositions. High-purity grades also serve electronic-material and research work, while powder is used where particle size matters to the process.
Is antimony metal the same as antimony trioxide?
No. Antimony metal is the element Sb, CAS 7440-36-0, supplied as ingot, pieces, granules or powder. Antimony trioxide is the white compound Sb2O3 used in flame-retardant, polymer and catalyst applications. They require separate specifications and should be ordered by their full names.
Which antimony form should I request for alloying?
Ingot or lump suits larger melt charges, while smaller pieces, granules or shot allow measured additions. State the furnace or charging constraint, required purity and critical impurity limits so the physical form is quoted against the metallurgical process.
When is high-purity antimony required?
High-purity material is requested for electronic, specialty alloy and research uses where trace impurities influence the result. Provide the purity basis and maximum limits for the named elements in the current specification rather than relying only on a broad high-purity label.
Can this antimony page be used for food or supplement enquiries?
No. This page covers elemental antimony for industrial and research use. A food, feed or supplement ingredient is not an alternate grade of antimony metal and should be identified separately with its exact substance and intended-use specification.
What packing and documents are available for antimony?
Send the required handling format and the specification, safety or quality documents needed by your site. Packing and documentation available for the quoted form and grade are confirmed with the quotation.
What information is needed for an antimony price quotation in Malaysia?
Provide the form, purity and impurity limits, particle size or dimensions where relevant, quantity, application and delivery location. These details define the quotation basis and the offer's stated validity period.
