Antimony Market by Product Type (Trioxides, Alloys), Application (Flame Retardants, Plastic Additives. Lead-Acid Batteries, Glass & Ceramics), End-Use Industry (Chemical, Automotive, Electrical & Electronics), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023

“The antimony market is projected to register a CAGR of 6.0% from 2018 to 2023, in terms of value.”
The antimony market size is estimated to be USD 1.77 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 2.37 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 6.0% between 2018 and 2023. The increasing demand for antimony in the chemical industry is one of the most significant factors driving the antimony market. Antimony is a rare silvery-white, shiny, brittle, semiconducting element which is used in flame retardant, plastic additives, refining agent, pacifier, and alloying agent. Environmental & health concerns and the high price of antimony are restraining the growth of the antimony market.

“The trioxide segment is projected to lead the overall antimony market during the forecast period.”
Around 70% of the antimony produced is consumed in the form of antimony trioxide (ATO), globally. ATO is used in flame retardant, plastic additives, glass & ceramics, and pigment applications. Owing to its wide-range applications, the ATO segment is projected to lead the antimony market during the forecast period.

“The antimony market in the chemical end-use industry is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.”
The chemical industry is the major consumer of antimony. Antimony is used in the chemical industry as a flame synergist, catalyst, and stabilizer. Antimony trioxide or triacetate form is used as a polycondensation catalyst in the late-stage polymerization of PET production. Antimony is also used as a stabilizer in plastic production that is susceptible to degradation by heat and ultraviolet light (UV).

“The antimony market in the APAC region is projected to witness the highest CAGR between 2018 and 2023.”
The antimony market in the APAC region is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for antimony in China, Japan, South Korea, and others countries. The APAC region is bestowed with large reserves of antimony and accounts for 70% of the global antimony production. APAC leads the antimony market both in terms of production and consumption.
