Description

White, translucent crystals that are produced by the reaction of Nitric acid on Lead. Lead nitrate is a strong oxidizing material. It is used as a Mordant in dyeing and printing Calico and for staining Mother-of-pearl. Lead nitrate is also used as a sensitizer in photography and is used in engraving and lithographic processes.
