Lead Oxide (Grey Oxide)
The Greyish color Lead oxide is also known as lead sub oxide, grey oxide, battery oxide. The Grey Oxide is produced in the ball mill plant & the process is an endothermic reaction. The chemical formulae of Lead suboxide are (2PbO.Pb). The Lead suboxide is used extensively in the preparation of plates in Lead Acid Batteries.
