Lead acetate trihydrate CAS#6080-56-4
Lead acetate trihydrate, also known as plumbous acetate trihydrate, has the chemical formula Pb(C2H3O2)2·3H2O. It appears as a white, monoclinic crystalline solid. Upon heating it loses some of its water of crystallization, and after melting, decomposes at 200 °C. The trihydrate is highly soluble in water but insoluble in ethyl alcohol. It has an intensely sweet taste, hence it is sometimes called sugar of lead, but it is poisonous. The trihydrate is made by dissolving lead monoxide in hot dilute acetic acid solution; on cooling, large crystals separate, sometimes up to 60-cm long. |

Product Application Of Lead acetate trihydrate CAS#6080-56-4
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.
