LEAD BROMIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Lead bromide is a white crystalline solid with the chemical formula PbBr₂, used in various industrial applications. It is employed in the production of other lead compounds, as a radiation shield, and in the manufacturing of specialty glass and ceramics. Lead bromide is also used in laboratory research and as a reagent in chemical synthesis. Despite its utility, lead bromide is highly toxic and poses significant health risks, including neurological damage and potential carcinogenic effects. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures are essential to minimize exposure. Personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation are crucial when working with lead bromide.
