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.

Beta-PbO2 electrodes were prepared by electro-deposition and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and linear sweep voltammetry. We confirmed pure (beta-PbO2 crystals were on the electrode and it had a high oxygen evolution potential. The photoactivity

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
