Overview

Litharge (PbO) for batteries, glass, ceramic glazes and PVC stabilisers.

Product description

Lead oxide PbO (CAS 1317-36-8), also called lead monoxide or litharge, is a yellow to red-orange powder.

It is used to make lead-acid battery plates, lead crystal and optical and radiation-shielding glass, ceramic glazes and enamels, PVC heat stabilisers, paint driers, and other lead compounds.

Lead compounds are toxic and can damage fertility and the unborn child. Use dust control and respiratory protection, and keep it out of drains.

Supplied from Barka to customers across Oman. Tell us the grade, quantity and delivery site and we will send a quote.

Applications

This product has versatile use.

  • Lead oxide is Mainly used in electron tubes, picture tubes, optical glass, anti-X-ray lead glass and radiation-resistant rubber products.
     
  • Used in smelting metal lead and preparing lead glass, lead compound, catalyst and paint drier.
     
  • Used as analytical reagents, silicate flux, but also for the precipitation of amino acids
     

Also known as

Lead Mono Oxide

Notes

  • Lead oxide is used in the manufacture of PVC plastic stabilizer and also is the raw materials of other lead salts. In the paint industry, it can be used with oil to make lead soap for paint driers. It can also be used in the manufacture of high refractive index optical glass, ceramic enamel, plane grinding agent of precision machine tool, medical raw materials and rubber coloring agent. It is also used for battery plate manufacturing, oil refining and so on.
     
  • Used as pigments, metallurgical fluxes and paint driers, and also used in petroleum, rubber, glass, enamel and other industries
     
  • Used as fluxing agents of decomposing silicate and metallurgy and paint driers, and also used for determination of gold and silver and precipitation of amino acids. It can be blended with glycerol to produce hard materials as adhesives in glass and rubber industry.
