Antimony Sodium Tartrate is a white, crystalline powder used primarily in laboratories, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemical synthesis. It functions as a powerful emetic, mordant, and reagent in various biochemical applications. Known for its precise reactivity and solubility in water, this compound is typically used under expert supervision in analytical chemistry and select pharmaceutical formulations. Despite its niche uses, it remains an essential compound in research and industry due to its complexing and catalytic capabilities.

Industrial Uses

1. Pharmaceuticals

  • Antiparasitic Agent: Historically used as an active ingredient in treatments for schistosomiasis and leishmaniasis due to its antimony content, though now replaced in modern therapies.
  • Emetic Formulations: Used in very controlled doses to induce vomiting in cases of poisoning (obsolete in most regions but still of academic and historical relevance).
  • Research on Antimony-Based Drugs: Acts as a model compound in pharmacological studies investigating the behavior of antimony-containing therapeutic agents.

2. Fabric Solutions

  • Mordant in Dyeing Processes: Facilitates the binding of dyes to fabric fibers, especially for wool and silk, enhancing colorfastness and shade depth.
  • Color Fixative: Used to stabilize certain natural dyes in textile manufacturing, helping prevent fading.
