Antimony trioxide (Sb2O3) is used as a flame retardant in the textile industry. We carried out a study in a factory for the evaluation of antimony (Sb) occupational exposure and urinary levels in workers exposed to Sb2O3. Urinary levels and

An employee at a brazing rod manufacturing plant developed a generalized eruption of follicular papules and pustules. His job tasks included breaking up antimony ingots and melting the pieces in a crucible; he was exposed to antimony metal dust and
A low-cost green and reproducible microbe (Lactobacillus sp.)-mediated biosynthesis of Sb(2)O(3) nanoparticles is reported. The synthesis was performed at around room temperature. X-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses were performed to ascertain the formation of Sb(2)O(3) nanoparticles. X-ray analysis indicated
This work has investigated the effect that antimony trioxide has on the pyrolysis of styrenic polymers and the effect that different types of brominated flame retardants used in plastics have on the composition of the pyrolysis products. Brominated high impact
