Overview of Antimony Sulfide
Antimony Sulfide (Sb₂S₃) is an important industrial inorganic compound known for its rich black-red color, flame sensitivity, and high thermal stability. It is widely used in pyrotechnics, friction materials, pigment production, glass manufacturing, and metallurgical processing. Its stable crystalline structure makes it suitable for applications requiring heat resistance and controlled reactivity.
Industries purchasing Antimony Sulfide often require complementary raw materials such as Lead Nitrate, Ferric Chloride Anhydrous, Copper Sulphate, Colloidal Silica, and Barium Carbonate, which support pigment dispersion, alloy processing, catalyst reactions, and friction-grade formulation. These related products are available on ChemicalBull for seamless internal linking.
