Calcium plumbate explained

Calcium plumbate is an inorganic chemical that has been used extensively as an anticorrosive pigment in paints and coatings.[1] [2] [3] [4] The formula is given as CaO3Pb,[5] [6] but also is shown as CaO4Pb2 in other sources.[7] [8] The compound has REACH restricted status due to the general toxicity of lead based compounds.[9]

Manufacture

It is usually manufactured by the reaction of calcium oxide (CaO) and lead oxide (PbO) at high temperature in the presence of excess oxygen.[10]

Recent research indicates that it can be prepared by sol-gel methodology.[11]

Toxicology

Calcium plumbate and other lead paint additives have been known to cause lead poisoning for over 50 years.[12] The effects of paint containing calcium plumbate dust have likewise been studied and analytical techniques developed to assess lead content.[13] [14] Studies also include finding calcium plumbate in soils and further possible bioaccumulation.[15] The demand for lead in all forms is decreasing worldwide,[16] though the use of calcium plumbate and other heavy metal compounds in cement and concrete is subject to recent research and the specific toxicology studied.[17]
