General description

Lead acetate trihydrate appears as white crystals that melt at 75 °C. It is water soluble and stable under normal conditions.

Application

Lead(II) acetate trihydrate was a component of the solution which was used towards the fabrication of platinum black microelectrodes. Lead acetate trihydrate may be used in the manufacturing of other lead salts. It may be used in the textile industry for dyeing and printing. In paint industry, lead acetate acts as a drying agent and as a purification agent in chemical synthesis.
