It is a dense, soft metal that is very resistant to corrosion and poorly conductive compared to other metals. Its density and low melting point make it useful.
| Usage/Application | emulsion polymers, printing inks, concrete and cement and as an additive in ion exchange resins and a range of personal care products |
Lead is a chemical element with the symbol Pb (from the Latin plumbum) and atomic number 82. It is a heavy metal that is denser than most common materials. Lead is soft and malleable, and also has a relatively low melting point. ... Lead is a relatively unreactive post-transition metal.
