Product Introduction:

Description Lead (II) iodide (chemical formula: PbI) is a kind of inorganic salt. It appears as a bright yellow crystalline solid. It has some special applications such as the manufacture of solar cells, X-rays, and gamma-ray detectors. In addition, it can also be used as a paint pigment for being used in art for bronzing and in gold-like mosaic tiles. It can be commonly synthesized through a double displacement reaction between potassium iodide KI and lead (II) nitrate Pb(NO3)2 in water solution. Lead (II) acetate and sodium iodide can also be used as the substitute of lead nitrate and potassium iodide, respectively. Alternatively, it can be manufactured through the reaction between iodine vapor and the molten lead. It is also used in printing and photography. However, it is hazard to the environment, and should be taken care of to limit spread to the environment.

Uses Lead(II) iodide is used as a detector material for high energy photons including x-rays and gamma rays. It is used in photography, printing, mosaic gold, and bronzing. It exhibits ferroelastic properties and has efficiency in stopping X-ray and gamma ray, which provides excellent environmental stability.

Uses Used in bronzing, printing, photography, gold pencils, and mosaic gold."
