About Lead Metal Powder
Lead metal, also known as Plumbum or Blei, possesses a silver-bluish white to gray lustrous
appearance and tarnishes upon exposure to air. It has no odor and is insoluble in Water at
ambient conditions. However, it is soluble in dilute Nitric Acid and Alcohol. It can be easily
machined, extruded, or drawn into shapes due to its soft and ductile nature. On a commercial
scale, it is primarily produced by roasting and reduction of its ores, namely Galena (Lead
Sulfide), Anglesite (Lead Sulfate), and Cerussite (Lead Carbonate). Chemically pure or
Laboratory reagents are the two terms often used to describe Lab Grade chemicals. Lab Grade
chemicals do not meet any accepted quality or purity requirements such as the ACS Grade, the
USP Grade, and the FCC Grade, despite their acceptable purity. In the United States of America
(USA), Lab Alley is selling its high-quality Lead Metal Powder, Lab Grade online at
laballey.com. Due to its high purity, Lead Metal Powder, Lab Grade is highly recommended
for labs and commercial applications.
