Abstract According to the latest research progress, the allotropes of antimony are summarized and discussed in this paper, including bulk antimony (gray antimony, explosive antimony, black antimony, yellow antimony) and nano antimony (antimonene, antimony nanotubes). The composition, structure, existence, synthesis and application of various antimony allotropes are introduced comprehensively, which can provide valuable materials for deep teaching and research on element antimony.
