Antimony Oxide Pricing, Demand and Supply Overview

Antimony Oxide prices in the United States fell 29.5% in Q2 2026 to USD 40,350.00/MT from an extraordinary Q1 peak of USD 57,231.00/MT, as commissioning of a domestic furnace and steady imports increased supply, prompting sellers to discount spot prices. Chinese prices corrected even more sharply, down 52.2% to USD 16,400.00/MT, as domestic furnaces operated continuously and elevated warehouse stocks intensified competitive selling. Globally, the average fell from USD 49,395.00/MT in Q1 to USD 34,165.00/MT in Q2, a 30.8% retreat. For H2 2026, a global average of USD 30,000.00-42,000.00/MT is expected, with new processing capacity easing the acute finished-product shortage even as upstream antimony ore remains structurally tight.

Antimony Trioxide, chemically Sb2O3, is a white, odorless, crystalline powder that is the most commercially important compound of antimony, produced primarily through the oxidation of antimony metal. It serves as the leading flame retardant synergist used alongside halogenated compounds in plastics, electronics, textiles, and construction materials, alongside applications in photovoltaic glass manufacturing and as a catalyst in PET packaging and polymer production. Unlike the raw antimony metal market, which remains constrained by upstream ore scarcity and Chinese export licensing, the trioxide market can see prices correct sharply once new furnace and processing capacity comes online, even as the underlying metal feedstock stays tight. Antimony metal feedstock costs, furnace and processing capacity utilization, and flame retardant and photovoltaic glass demand are what drive prices in this market.

Antimony Oxide Price Forecast for 2026

The outlook for Antimony Trioxide through H2 2026 points to continued moderation following the sharp Q2 2026 correction, as new furnace commissioning and steady import flows continue easing the acute finished-product shortage that drove prices to extraordinary levels earlier in the year. Demand remains mixed, with flame-retardant sector growth offset by weaker construction-related polymer compounder demand, even as underlying antimony metal feedstock costs stay structurally elevated given continued Chinese export licensing constraints.

The main upside risk is a renewed tightening of antimony metal feedstock availability outpacing new furnace capacity additions, which could reverse the current correction. The main downside risk is continued furnace commissioning and destocking pressure combined with softer flame retardant and construction demand, which would extend the correction seen in Q2 2026 further.

Region 2026 Price Range (USD/MT) Outlook
Global Average 30,000.00 - 42,000.00 New processing capacity eases the acute finished-product shortage
United Kingdom 44,000.00 - 58,000.00 Elevated warehouse benchmark tracks metal feedstock costs
United States 35,000.00 - 46,000.00 Furnace commissioning and imports moderate this market
India 22,000.00 - 30,000.00 Correcting from a sharp Q1 2026 spike
China 14,000.00 - 20,000.00 Continuous furnace operation keeps this market comparatively soft

For the Quarter Ending June 2026

Antimony Oxide Prices Q2 2026:

  • United Kingdom: USD 50,000.00/MT
  • United States: USD 40,350.00/MT
  • India: USD 26,082.00/MT

Antimony Oxide Prices in United Kingdom

UK Antimony Trioxide prices averaged USD 50,000.00/MT in Q2 2026, the highest of any region tracked here, down 23.8% from an extraordinary Q1 peak of USD 65,576.00/MT, as broader European supply conditions eased somewhat from their acute tightness.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q2 2026 in United Kingdom?

Higher inventories and synchronized import arrivals at major European ports eased some of the acute supply tightness that had pushed prices to extraordinary levels in Q1, even as underlying antimony metal feedstock costs stayed structurally elevated.

Antimony Oxide Prices in the United States

US prices averaged USD 40,350.00/MT in Q2 2026, down 29.5% from USD 57,231.00/MT in Q1, as commissioning of a domestic furnace and steady imports increased supply.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q2 2026 in the United States?

Domestic furnaces operated continuously, and US producers supplied additional oxide tonnage that supported prompt availability and export volumes, while weaker construction-related polymer compounder demand added to the downward pressure on spot prices.

Antimony Oxide Prices in India

Indian prices averaged USD 26,082.00/MT in Q2 2026, down 27.6% from USD 36,000.00/MT in Q1, correcting sharply from the earlier spike as broader Asian supply conditions eased.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q2 2026 in India?

Broader Asian supply conditions eased as regional processing capacity expanded, allowing prices to retreat from their Q1 peak even as underlying flame retardant demand stayed reasonably firm.

Antimony Oxide Prices in China

Chinese prices averaged USD 16,400.00/MT in Q2 2026, the lowest of the four regions, down 52.2% from USD 34,307.00/MT in Q1, one of the sharpest corrections recorded anywhere in this report as continuous furnace operation increased available supply.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q2 2026 in China?

Rising ore handling and energy inputs continued tightening margins for Chinese smelters, but domestic furnaces operated continuously and warehouse stocks increased, intensifying selling pressure and pushing spot prices down sharply as distributors discounted material to clear inventory.

For the Quarter Ending March 2026

Antimony Oxide Prices Q1 2026:

  • United Kingdom: USD 65,576.00/MT
  • United States: USD 57,231.00/MT
  • India: USD 36,000.00/MT
  • China: USD 34,307.00/MT

Antimony Oxide Prices in United Kingdom

UK prices surged 21.4% in Q1 2026 to USD 65,576.00/MT from USD 54,000.00/MT in Q4 2025, tracking the broader extraordinary rally in antimony metal feedstock costs.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q1 2026 in United Kingdom?

Antimony trioxide market prices followed the underlying antimony metal benchmark upward through the quarter, with the metal trading at roughly four times its 2024 average, though buyers were advised to verify the current trioxide spot against the metal benchmark given how closely the two markets were tracking.

Antimony Oxide Prices in the United States

US prices surged 19.2% in Q1 2026 to USD 57,231.00/MT from USD 48,000.00/MT in Q4 2025, as sufficient supply had not yet caught up with surging metal feedstock costs.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q1 2026 in the United States?

The market experienced a declining trend later in the quarter driven by sufficient supply and moderated demand from the flame retardant and plastics industries, even as domestic production and steady import availability had not yet fully caught up with the sharp rise in underlying feedstock costs earlier in the quarter.

Antimony Oxide Prices in India

Indian prices surged 12.5% in Q1 2026 to USD 36,000.00/MT from USD 32,000.00/MT in Q4 2025, tracking the broader Asian supply tightness.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q1 2026 in India?

Rising ore handling and energy inputs influenced the production cost trend, tightening margins for smelters across the region, while conservative demand reflected substitution uptake and subdued electronics sector ordering even as prices continued climbing.

Antimony Oxide Prices in China

Chinese prices rose 14.4% in Q1 2026 to USD 34,307.00/MT from USD 30,000.00/MT in Q4 2025, as tight raw material availability and controlled market supply kept this market firm.

Why did the price of Antimony Oxide change in Q1 2026 in China?

Antimony trioxide prices remained firm through Q1 2026 as tight upstream antimony availability and cautious producer selling supported the market, with domestic supply staying tight because ore availability remained limited, mining controls continued, and replenishment of smelter raw materials was slow.

Quarterly Antimony Oxide Price Trends

Global Antimony Trioxide prices surged dramatically through 2025 and into Q1 2026, tracking the extraordinary rally in underlying antimony metal feedstock costs, before a sharp correction took hold in Q2 as new furnace commissioning and steady import flows eased the acute finished-product shortage even as upstream ore scarcity kept metal feedstock costs elevated.
