Antimony pentoxide is priced about two to three times higher than the trioxide. However, because it is more efficient than the trioxide, the pentoxide is at least cost-equivalent. Antimony pentoxide is manufactured by both Philadelphia Quartz and Laurel Industries under the Nyacol and Fkeshield trade names.
