The literature on organoantimony polymers is modest. A number of polymers have been synthesized and characterized including polyesters, polyamines, polyethers, polyoxamines, and mixed products. Some of the antimony polymers have been reported to offer unusual viscosity properties, to be semiconductors, and be candidates as flame retardants. Many of the products also exhibit good inhibition of various bacteria, fungi, and yeast microorganisms. Some also may be decent anticancer agents.
