Lead Acetate

Other names: Lead acetate, lead sugar

Harm score: 5 (Dangerous substances)


Lead Acetate, also known as Lead Acetate or Lead Sugar, is a chemical that has long been used in various industries. This inorganic compound appears as white crystals or powder and is highly soluble in water. Due to its toxicity and possible negative impact on health, its use has been banned or restricted in most European Union countries in recent decades.

Traditionally, lead acetate has been used mainly in the cosmetics industry, mainly as an ingredient in hair highlighting or darkening products. Although some studies have shown that it can have a negative impact on health, leaded sugar has long been very popular due to its effects. In addition, lead acetate can be found in certain types of paints or in the printing of some ceramics and porcelain. In the past it was also used for the production of certain types of paints and pigments. However, its preferred use in industry is now increasingly restricted for health reasons.
