General description

Lead(II) oxide (PbO) is an industrially important metal oxide with strong absorption cross sections, high carrier mobilities, and conductivities. It is widely applied in the field of storage batteries, dielectrics, gas sensors, pigments, and paints.

Application

Lead(II) oxide can be used as a precursor to prepare:
  • Gamma ray radiation shielding glasses such as GeO2-PbO-Al2O3–CaO glasses.
  • Perovskite ceramic materials. For example, it can be used to synthesize lead magnesium niobate, widely applied in the field of electronic ceramics due to its high dielectric constant and voltage stability.

Widely used SiO2-PbO glasses can be a good model for studying electron structure of insulator-metal interface with many Si-O-Pb bonds and eutectic Pb-Si mixture. Gamma-radiation of 60Co with an energy of -1.25 MeV generates efficiently electronic and hole structure defects

This study quantified the effects of lead stabilization by blending lead-containing sludge into glass-ceramics through sintering with aluminum- and silica-rich precursors. Using lead oxide (PbO) to simulate lead-laden sludge under thermal conditions, the predominant PbAl(2)O(4) phase was found at temperatures

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
