Antimony deposition

Antimony pneumoconiosis or antimony pneumoconiosis is a lung disease caused by long-term inhalation of metal antimony and antimony oxide smoke during the production process. High concentrations of metal antimony and its oxides can cause irritation, cause conjunctivitis, keratitis, rhinitis, pharyngitis, bronchitis, and chemical pneumonia, and cause damage to the heart, liver, and nervous system. Some people think that long-term inhalation of antimony concentrations exceeding 10mg / m3 can cause interstitial pneumonia and focal pulmonary fibrosis.
