LEAD CARBONATE LR
SKU: RXSOL-60-6604-807
Lead carbonate is used as a catalyst to polymerize formaldehyde to poly(oxymethylene). It improves the bonding of chloroprene to wire.
Application
Catalyzes the polymerization of formaldehyde to high molecular weight crystalline poly(oxymethylene) products; used in poly(vinyl chloride) friction liners for pulleys on drive cables of hoisting engines; to improve the bond of polychloroprene to metals in wire-reinforced hoses, 10-25 parts of lead carbonate are used ...
Dosage
Lead carbonate hydroxide has had a widespread use as pigment in house paint in some countries, and weathering, chalking, and peeling paint may cause heavy exposure (Rosner et al., 2005). Organolead added to gasoline used to be another large-scale source of exposure.
