The two Antimony isotopes are used for the production of medical radioisotopes. Sb-121 can be used for the production of I-124, although this medical radioisotope is usually produced via Te-124. Sb-121 and Sb-123 can both be used for the production of I-123, although the most common production route is via Xe-124 or Te-123.

Naturally occurring isotopes

This table shows information about naturally occuring isotopes, their atomic masses, their natural abundances, their nuclear spins, and their magnetic moments. Further data for radioisotopes (radioactive isotopes) of antimony are listed (including any which occur naturally) below.
Isotope Mass / Da Natural abundance (atom %) Nuclear spin (I) Magnetic moment (μ/μN)
121Sb 120.9038212 (29) 57.21 (5) 5/2 3.3634
123Sb 122.9042160 (24) 42.79 (5) 7/2 2.5498
Isotope abundances of antimony
Isotope abundances of antimony. In the above, the most intense ion is set to 100% since this corresponds best to the output from a mass spectrometer. This is not to be confused with the relative percentage isotope abundances which totals 100% for all the naturally occurring isotopes.

Radiosotope data

Further data for naturally occuring isotopes of antimony are listed above. This table gives information about some radiosotopes of antimony, their masses, their half-lives, their modes of decay, their nuclear spins, and their nuclear magnetic moments.
