| Application: | Lead(II) nitrate can be used as: • Precursor for synthesis of perovskite solar cells. Precursor in the fabrication of Cr-doped PbS thin films via a chemical bath deposition. • The synthesized PbS films are used in optoelectronic and photoelectrochemical applications. • A precursor to synthesize the nanoscale complex [Pb(QCA)₂]n (NSC1). The complex serves as a catalyst for degrading pollutants in wastewater treatment. |
| Application: | Several new polymeric complexes of lead with dialkylamino derivatives of squaric acid were produced to study their coordination modes as possible prototypes for studies of lanthanide complexes. |
| General description: | Lead(II) nitrate is a white crystalline solid, highly soluble in water, allowing easy incorporation into solution-based synthesis methods such as sol-gel, hydrothermal, and precipitation techniques. It provides a stable source of Pb²⁺ ions, essential for preparing lead-based ceramics, ferroelectrics (like PbTiO₃ and PZT), and perovskite materials used in electronics. It thermally decomposes at moderate temperatures, releasing nitrogen oxides and forming lead oxide (PbO), which serves as a precursor for various lead-containing functional oxides |
