Lead oxide is found in the red tetroxide (lead red lead), the yellow monoxide (litharge, massicot) form, the brown dioxide form and the black suboxide form. These toxic pigments may be dissolved in acids and are sensitive to sulfur gases. See dioxide lead dioxide, monoxide lead monoxide, and tetroxide lead tetroxide.

oxyde de plomb (Fr.); xido de chumbo (Port.)

Examples include: lead monoxide (litharge, massicot); lead dioxide (brown); lead tetroxide (red lead, minium); lead suboxide (black)

Toxic by inhalation or ingestionSkin contact may cause irritation or ulcers.Carcinogen, teratogen, suspected mutagen.
