With the existence and uniqueness of a vector value solution for the full non-linear homogeneous Boltzmann system of equations describing multi-component monatomic gas mixtures for binary interactions proved [8], we present in this manuscript several properties for such a solution. We start by proving the gain of integrability of the gain term of the multispecies collision operator, extending the work done previously for the single species case [3]. In addition, we study the integrability properties of the multispecies collision operator as a bilinear form, revisiting and expanding the work done for a single gas [2]. With these estimates, together with a control by below for the loss term of the collision operator as in [8], we develop the propagation for the polynomially and exponentially $\beta$-weighted $L^p_\beta$-norms for the vector value solution. Finally, we extend such $L^p_\beta$-norms propagation property to $p=\infty$.
