The antimony vapors react with the oxygen and form a fine, white dust that is collected in a special filtration system Antimony trioxide is often used in plastic formulations in conjunction with a halogen-based chemical to reduce a product’s flammability. Antimony trioxide, commonly referred to as ATO, is typically a white, solid powder that can form dust in air.
