Leaching Source[edit]

The leaching source seems to be partially from this source: http://www.uni-heidelberg.de/press/news/news06/2601antime.html although the URL does not mention the results that are currently in this article.

Microelectronics use[edit]

The article indicates that antimony is used in tiny amounts in the semiconductor industry. As a dopant perhaps, but it is roughly 50% by weight of the semiconductor indium antimonide (InSb) used in infrared detectors.

What is antimony[edit]

Antimony is a chemical element. It has the chemical symbol Sb. The symbol Sb is from the Latin name of 'stibium' for the element. It has the atomic number 51. Its atomic mass is 121.8. It is a blue-gray element that is somewhat toxic. John (talk) 14:53, 17 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
