Translation guide
Lead oxide refers to chemical compounds of lead and oxygen, primarily encountered in technical, industrial, or scientific contexts. The most common forms are lead(II) oxide (PbO) and lead(IV) oxide (PbO₂).
The most common lead oxide, used in glass, ceramics, and batteries.
Standard chemical name for lead(II) oxide, PbO. Used in technical and scientific contexts.
Lead(II) oxide is used in glass manufacturing.
Common name for lead monoxide, PbO. Often used in industrial contexts.
Lead monoxide is a yellow powder.
Traditional name for litharge, a mineral form of PbO. Rare, mainly historical or in art contexts.
Litharge was used as a pigment.
The dioxide form, used in batteries and as an oxidizing agent.
Standard chemical name for lead(IV) oxide, PbO₂.
Lead(IV) oxide is a strong oxidizing agent.
Less common forms like red lead or lead sesquioxide.
In scientific contexts, it's important to distinguish between PbO and PbO₂. Use the Stock notation (酸化鉛(II) or 酸化鉛(IV)) or the common names (一酸化鉛, 二酸化鉛) to avoid ambiguity.
All lead compounds are toxic. When discussing lead oxide, be aware of safety regulations and handling precautions. In Japanese, you may encounter 有害 (ゆうがい, harmful) or 毒性 (どくせい, toxicity) in related contexts.
Common name for lead dioxide, PbO₂. Frequently used in battery technology.
Lead dioxide is used in the positive electrode of lead-acid batteries.
鉛丹は昔、顔料や漆喰に使われた。
Red lead was used in the past for pigments and plaster.
