Antimony sulfide

Other early match-like devices were based on the property of various combustible substances mixed with potassium chlorate to ignite when moistened with strong acid. More important was the property of chlorates to form mixtures with combustibles of low ignition point which were ignited by friction (John Walker, 1827). However, such matches containing essentially potassium chlorate, antimony sulfide, and later sulfur (lucifers), mbbed within a fold of glass powder-coated paper, were hard to initiate and unreHable. [Pg.1]

Iron Precipitation. Rich sulfide ore or Hquated antimony sulfide (cmde antimony) is reduced to metal by iron precipitation. This process, consisting essentially of heating molten antimony sulfide ia cmcibles with slightly more than the theoretical amount of fine iron scrap, depends on the abihty of iron to displace antimony from molten antimony sulfide. Sodium sulfate and carbon are added to produce sodium sulfide, or salt is added to form a light fusible matte with iron sulfide and to faciHtate separation of the metal. Because the metal so formed contains considerable iron and some sulfur, a second fusion with some Hquated antimony sulfide and salt foHows for purification. [Pg.196]

Microbiological leaching of copper and uranium has been commercially developed and research has iadicated that microorganisms may be used to oxidize complex antimony sulfide minerals (22,23). If this technology is developed commercially, it may aHow for the exploitation of many low grade antimony deposits. [Pg.196]

Formulations of this type have completely replaced earlier "strike anywhere matches based on (poi.sonous) white P4, sulfur, and KCIO3. though safety matches" still use a match head which is predominantly KCIO3 struck against the side of the match-box which has been covered with a paste of (non-toxic) red P (49.5%), antimony sulfide (27.6%). FeiOr (l.2%) and gum arabic (2I,7%). About lO" matches are used annually in the UK alone. [Pg.509]

Chlorates are useful oxidizing agents. Potassium chlorate is used as an oxidant in fireworks and in matches. The heads of safety matches consist of a paste of potassium chlorate, antimony sulfide, and sulfur, with powdered glass to create friction when the match is struck as mentioned in Section 15.1, the striking strip contains red phosphorus, which ignites the match head. [Pg.763]

Red phosphorus is found in the striking surface of matchboxes. The red heads contain antimony sulfide. [Pg.40]

Semimetal that occurs as a tin-type, brittle form and as a yellow, unstable, nonmetallic form. Its main use is in alloys to harden other metals. Without the addition of antimony, lead would have remained the "softy" of the Periodic Table. But with antimony, lead ruled the print world and later found use in the production of rechargeable batteries. It can be found in older ceramic glazing (yellow orange). Everyday encounters antimony sulfide in match heads and red rubber, antimony oxide is used as a flame retardant. Pure antimony is starting to become of interest in the electronics sector. [Pg.138]

Performance tests consisted of loading DBX-1 as a transfer charge in U.S. Army M55 stab detonators. Standard M55 detonators consist of three separate explosive layers, pressed sequentially into a metal detonator cup as shown in Figure 6. The first layer is 15 mg of the stab initiation mix (NOL-130) it is a combination of lead azide, lead styphnate, barium nitrate, antimony sulfide, and tetrazene [l-(5-tetrazolyl)-3-guanyltetra-zene hydrate], pressed at 70,000 psi. The second layer is 51 mg of transfer charge, lead azide, pressed at 10,000 psi. Lastly, the third layer is 19 mg of output charge, RDX, pressed at 15,000 psi. [Pg.5]

Although antimony is not a rare metal, it is not well known, despite having been known and used for many centuries. It is the 63rd most abundant element on Earth, and it occurs mainly as sulfide ores or in combination with the ores of other metals. The ore that is the primary source of antimony is the mineral stibnite (antimony sulfide, Sb S ). Antimony is also found in copper, silver, and lead ores. Breithauptite (NiSb) and ullmanite (NiSbS) are two ores containing nickel. Dicrasite (Ag Sb) and pyrargyrite (Ag ShS ) are silver ores containing some antimony. [Pg.218]
