Frequently Asked Questions
Lead Nitrate is widely used as a flotation reagent in gold mining, a tanning agent for leather production, a dyeing mordant, and a critical precursor for manufacturing Chrome Yellow and Chrome Orange pigments.
As a Class 5.1 Oxidizer, it must be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from organic materials, reducing agents, and heat sources to prevent combustion.
It is easily soluble in water (56.5g/100g at 20°C) and liquid ammonia, slightly soluble in ethyl alcohol, and insoluble in concentrated nitric acid.
Yes, our product is packaged in UN-approved plastic woven bags with plastic liners, strictly adhering to UN 1469 hazardous material transport regulations.
Dry lead nitrate decomposes between 205-223°C. Damp lead nitrate begins decomposition at 100°C, first forming a mixture of Pb(NO3)2 and PbO, and eventually becoming PbO upon further heating.
High purity (99% min) reduces the presence of impurities like Iron and Copper, which can interfere with the flotation process, thereby improving the selectivity and recovery rate of gold ore.
