  • Boiling Point: 1,472 °C (2,682 °F)
  • Appearance: Reddish-pink or yellowish powder depending on its crystalline polymorph.

Lead monoxide (PbO), or litharge applications:

In laboratory and analytical research, this chemical serves as a vital high-purity analytical reagent and a critical silicate flux, functioning as a primary starting material for synthesizing other complex lead compounds or conducting small-scale inorganic chemical experiments.
Within glass and ceramic manufacturing, it is widely added to precise formulation mixes to produce premium optical glass, specialized ceramic glazes, and industrial frits. It significantly enhances the refractive index of glass and is crucial for creating radiation-resistant or anti-X-ray lead glass used to shield sensitive equipment and personnel.
For chemical synthesis and intermediates, Lead Monoxide acts as a major precursor and reactant in both organic and inorganic chemical pathways, including condensation reactions and the production of industrial lead soaps or paint driers.
In the rubber and plastics sectors, it is utilized as a processing activator or vulcanizing agent to improve elasticity, while also serving as a robust heat stabilizer and raw material for compounding PVC stabilizers.
Finally, in battery and metallurgical studies, the compound is applied in metallurgical extraction research and experimental battery-plate development, contributing heavily to materials science exploration.
