Lead Chromate
Product Code : SCL-LC-12171
Lead Chromate (SKU SCL-LC-12171) is PbCrO4, an inorganic chromate compound containing both lead and hexavalent chromium, offered as a restricted reagent for authorised chemistry laboratories. It suits colleges, universities, analytical and research labs carrying out controlled analytical, qualitative and teaching work where a method names lead chromate. Science Lab Supplies arranges supply from Ambala, India, quoting laboratories, stockrooms, tender contractors and distributors with trained staff in place.
Specifications
Row by row, the table records the identity and hazard controls for this lead chromate reagent. In short, it is PbCrO4, CAS 7758-97-6, molecular weight about 323.2 g/mol, handled as a restricted hazardous chemical because it combines a toxic heavy metal with hexavalent chromium. Grade, assay and pack size are confirmed on the quotation and label.

Applications and Experiments for Lead Chromate
Lead chromate suits only those settings where an approved method or teaching plan specifically requires it: controlled analytical procedures, qualitative inorganic chemistry under supervision, and instruction on chromate and heavy-metal chemistry. It can also support staff training in labelling, segregating and disposing of highly regulated reagents.
- B.Sc. and M.Sc. inorganic chemistry: supervised study of chromate and heavy-metal compounds, with precipitates separated on 120 mm Filter Paper.
- Analytical and research laboratories: methods that name lead chromate, CAS 7758-97-6, with small samples held on a Watch Glass from a pack of 12.
- Reference use where institutional chemical-safety policy permits it.
- Chemical-safety training on hazardous-waste segregation and storage, with staff wearing disposable white Gloves Protective.
It is not for unsupervised students or general classroom demonstrations. Wear chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection, use respiratory controls where required, avoid dust, and keep it away from food areas and drains. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each supply is a sealed container of lead chromate with a label stating batch, grade and hazard information, plus its Safety Data Sheet, inside tamper-sealed outer packing with export documentation. Container size is given on the quotation, and secondary containment or protective equipment can be quoted on request.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can be prepared for a single container of lead chromate or for a larger store quantity. It states the pack size, hazardous-goods packing, delivery time and price, and other inorganic reagents can go on the same document.
Science Lab Supplies, registered as an exporter under an Importer-Exporter Code, is able to ship to buyers in Uganda, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines and Nepal, where the transport rules for toxic substances allow it. Laboratories with trained staff can raise a lead chromate enquiry on the contact page, combine restricted reagents in the enquiry cart, or tender through the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is lead chromate used for in laboratories?
It is used in authorised analytical, qualitative and research procedures that specifically require it, in supervised teaching of chromate and heavy-metal chemistry, and as a reference material where policy allows.
Why is lead chromate treated as a restricted chemical?
It contains both lead and hexavalent chromium, so it needs trained handling, gloves, eye protection, exposure controls, controlled storage and disposal as hazardous lead/chromium waste.
What are its formula and CAS number?
Lead chromate is PbCrO4, CAS 7758-97-6, with a molecular weight of about 323.2 g/mol. These identifiers appear on the label, and the grade and assay of the batch are confirmed on the quotation.
Who supplies Lead Chromate?
Lead Chromate is available through Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which prepares quotations for colleges, analytical and research laboratories, contractors and distributors, giving the pack size and batch details on each one.
