Metallic antimony ([Kr]4d105s25p3) (CAS 7440-36-0) a bluish-white metal, is extremely brittle, flaky, and crystalline. It is a poor conductor of heat and electricity and has a hardness of 3-3.5 on the Mohs scale. Though sometimes found in its pure state, antimony is more frequently found as the sulfide, stibnite (Sb2S3), or as antimonides of heavy metals and as oxides. Antimony is used in the manufacture of alloys and as a hardening agent for lead. In its purest form, antimony is used in semiconductor technology.
