Lead Hydroxide powder

उत्पाद वर्णन

Lead Hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Pb(OH). It typically appears as a white to off-white amorphous or crystalline powder. As a poorly soluble base, it is mainly used in battery manufacturing, pigments, and chemical synthesis. Due to its toxicity, it must be handled with strict safety precautions.

Chemical Properties:

• Chemical Name: Lead(II) Hydroxide

• Formula: Pb(OH)

• Molecular Weight: 241.21 g/mol

• Appearance: White to off-white powder
