Lead Chromate Extra Pure

Lead Chromate Extra Pure is a bright yellow crystalline powder with the chemical formula PbCrOâ‚„, known for its vivid pigmentation and high stability. This high-purity grade is commonly used in analytical laboratories, academic research, and historical pigment studies, particularly in the creation of reference standards and specialized reactions. It was historically used as a pigment (chrome yellow) in paints, plastics, and ceramics, although such applications have declined due to toxicity concerns. Lead chromate remains relevant in educational demonstrations, qualitative analysis, and scientific formulations where precise chemical behavior is required. Due to its carcinogenic and toxic nature, it must be handled with appropriate protective equipment and stored securely.
