Chemical properties

Antimony potassium tartrate is an odorless, colorless, crystalline material or white powder with a sweetish, metallic taste.

The Uses of Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate

As mordant in the textile and leather industry.

The Uses of Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate

Potassium antimonyl tartrate trihydrate is used in chemical therapy treatment of Leishmania guyanensis and Leishmania braziliensis however may be susceptible to antimony resistance.

The Uses of Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate

Potassium antimonyl tartrate trihydrate was employed as an Sb(III)-containing drug to investigate its ability to induce cell death associated with DNA fragmentation in axenic amastigotes of Leishmania infantum?
It may also be used as a standard solution to determine the metalloid concentration such as Sb(III) and Sb(V) in surface soil, using high performance liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS).

General Description

Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate solid is a colorless crystalline solid or a white powder. Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate is soluble in water. Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate is used in textile and leather processing and as an insecticide.

Air & Water Reactions

Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate effloresces on exposure to air. Water soluble.

Reactivity Profile

Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate reacts with tannic acid, alkalis and their carbonates, lead salts, astringent infusions (cinchona, rhubarb, etc.), acacia, antipyrene and mercury bichloride. Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate also reacts with acids, salts of heavy metals, albumins, soap and tannins. Potassium antimonyl tartrate sesquihydrate can react with strong oxidizing agents. .

Health Hazard

Inhalation causes inflammation of membranes of nose and throat, upper respiratory irritation, headache, dizziness. Ingestion causes gastrointestinal upset, strong irritation, vomiting. Contact with eyes or skin causes irritation. Further symptoms of exposure include nervous complaints (i.e., irritability, dizziness, muscular and neurological pain).

Fire Hazard

Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways.

Safety Profile

Human poison by intravenous route, producing liver and kidney changes, somnolence, dyspnea, and pupillary dilation. Poison by ingestion, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, and intraperitoneal routes. Large doses cause severe liver damage. Human mutation data reported. Used medicinally, the therapeutic dose is close to the toxic dose. Upon decomposition it emits toxic fumes of K2O and Sb.

Potential Exposure

It is used in medicine; textile and leather dyeing; as an insecticide.

First aid

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, getmedical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.Medical observation is recommended for 24°48 h afterbreathing overexposure, as pulmonary edema may bedelayed. As first aid for pulmonary edema, a doctor orauthorized paramedic may consider administering a corticosteroid spray.
