The environmental behavior of antimony (Sb) has recently received greater attention due to
the increasing global use of Sb in a range of industrial applications. Although present at …

Antimony, the compounds of which exhibit toxicity, finds extensive usage in industrial
processes for flame retardants, plastics, batteries, electronic components, and mechanical …

Although several studies have investigated the effects of Sb contamination on surrounding
environments and indigenous microorganisms, little is known about the effect of co …

In this study, knowledge gaps on Sb concentration in rocks, ores, tailings, soil, river water,
sediments, and crops of mine areas were identified and discussed in terms of contamination …

The first global-scale assessment of Sb contamination in soil that was related to
mining/smelting activities was conducted based on 91 articles that were published between …

A field survey was conducted to determine the pollution grade, sources, potential ecological
risk, and health risk of soil potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in Xikuangshan Mine (XKS), the …

While the transformation of antimony (Sb) in paddy soil has been previously investigated,
the biogeochemical processes of highly chemical active Sb in the soil remain poorly …

The transformation and transport of Sb are significantly influenced by strong oxides (eg MnO
2) in the natural environment. Furthermore, Fe (II) can coexist with Sb (III) and MnO 2 in …

Antimony (Sb) and arsenic (As) are two hazardous metalloid elements, and the
biogeochemical cycle of Sb and As can be better understood by studying plant rhizosphere …

Increasing use and mining of antimony (Sb) has resulted in greater concern involving its fate
and transport in the environment. Antimony (V) and (III) are the two most environmentally …
