Lead(II) Carbonate Basic

Lead (II) carbonate basic: White heavy powder, hexagonal crystal system, insoluble in water and ethanol, soluble in strong acids such as acetic acid and nitric acid. It is stable at normal temperature and pressure, but when heated to 220℃ (for 4 hours), 9% of the carbon dioxide decomposes, and 95% of it turns into (PbCO_{3}cdot PbO). It decomposes into lead oxide and releases carbon dioxide at 400℃. When in contact with hydrogen sulfide, it gradually turns black and forms (4PbCO_{3}cdot PbScdot Pb(OH)_{2}).

Safety Information

Product Usage

Lead(II) Carbonate Basic is widely used in coatings, plastics, and rubber industries as an effective white pigment and stabilizer, offering excellent hiding power and weather resistance. In anti-corrosion coatings, it enhances the protection of metal surfaces and extends service life. It is also used in ceramic glazes and as an intermediate in certain chemical processes. With good dispersibility and chemical stability, it plays an important role in industrial applications, while strict safety and environmental regulations must be followed during use.
