Market Growth Factors
The major markets for antimony in China are electronics and flame retardant applications. The electronics sector tends to use antimony for semiconductors and batteries, and is one of the major sources of demand growth in China. For example, China’s equipment for clever manufacturing has an annual output value of over 3.2 trillion yuan (450 billion U.S. dollars) with 421 national-level demonstration factories. Smart factories use technologies like AI and digital twins in over 90% of cases, increasing the demand for antimony.
The main use of antimony trioxide is in flame retardants for plastics, textiles, rubber, and other materials. Digital electronic technologies grow in demand, consumers increase awareness about safety issues, and regulations become more stringent to drive antimony demand. The increased computing power and use of digital devices produces a demand for semiconductors and batteries, of which antimony is a component.
The automotive and construction sectors are also key contributors to the market. The FAW Group has set a target for 2024 of 3.47 million vehicles sold and 636 billion yuan (US$89.53 billion) in revenue. China’s increased use of antimony in the manufacture of lead-acid batteries for electric vehicles and conventional vehicles will provide a strong base for future growth in demand. Antimony is also used for coatings and flame retardants in buildings. As urbanization increases, consumption in this industry is expected to increase.
