Lead chromate

Description

An important commercial yellow pigment called Chrome yellow. Lead chromate can range in shade from lemon yellow to orange depending on its particle size and hydration state. Chrome yellow, which came on the market in early 1800s, is fairly permanent to light, but has been known to darken on aging or with exposure to Hydrogen sulfide. Chrome yellow is used in industrial paint, some artists paint and ceramic glazes.
