Antimony: Characters, History & Applications

Antimony is a chemical element with the symbol Sb (from Latin stibium) and atomic number 51. A lustrous grey metal or metalloid, it occurs in nature mainly in the form of the sulfide mineral stibnite (Sb2S3). Antimony compounds have been known since ancient history and were powdered for use as cosmetics (often known by the Arabic name kohl) and as medicine.
