LEAD OXIDE RED LEAD
SKU: RXSOL-60-6604-817
Red lead is no longer used as an artists color because is has poor light stability and poor working properties. Instead, red lead is used to color glass and ceramic glazes.
Application
Red lead, or lead tetroxide (Pb3O4), is another lead oxide whose two most important uses are in paints and as an addition to litharge in storage batteries. It also has significant application in glasses, glazes, and vitreous enamels.
