Litharge Powder (Lead Monoxide PbO)
Litharge is a yellow or red powder form of lead(II) oxide (PbO), known as lead monoxide, used primarily in industrial applications like battery manufacturing and glass production. It falls under HTS 2824.10.00.00 as a chemically defined lead oxide, specifically lead monoxide including litharge and massicot forms. This classification covers pure or high-purity PbO without additional compounds.
Massicot Granules (Lead Monoxide)
Massicot is the orthorhombic crystalline form of lead monoxide (PbO), often supplied in granular form for use in ceramics and paint production. Classified under HTS 2824.10.00.00 as it matches the description of lead monoxide including massicot. It is a pure inorganic compound of lead and oxygen.
Battery-Grade Litharge (High Purity PbO)
High-purity litharge powder specifically refined for lead-acid battery plate formation, containing over 99.5% PbO. It is classified in HTS 2824.10.00.00 as pure lead monoxide used in electrochemical applications. This form ensures optimal paste formation in battery production.
Ceramic Grade Lead Monoxide (Massicot)
Fine-ground massicot (PbO) optimized for ceramic glaze formulations, providing fluxing properties in high-temperature firing. Falls under HTS 2824.10.00.00 as chemically defined lead monoxide. Used to lower melting points in tile and pottery glazes.
Technical Grade Litharge for Paint Drying
Technical litharge (PbO) used as a siccative or paint dryer in oil-based paints and varnishes, accelerating oxidation polymerization. Classified under HTS 2824.10.00.00 as pure lead monoxide. Typically 99% purity for industrial coatings.
Glassmaking Litharge (Synthetic PbO)
Synthetic litharge produced via controlled oxidation for crystal glass production, imparting brilliance and refractive index. HTS 2824.10.00.00 classification as lead monoxide (litharge). High purity to prevent discoloration in optical glass.
