'''Lead tetroxide''', also called '''minium''', '''red lead''' or '''triplumbic tetroxide''', is a bright red or orange [[crystalline]] or [[amorphous]] [[pigment]]. Chemically, red lead is lead [[oxide|tetroxide]], Pb<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, or 2PbO·PbO<sub>2</sub>. |
|||
'''Lead(II,IV) oxide''', also called '''red lead''' or [[Minium_(mineral)|minium]], is the inorganic compound with the formula {{chem2|Pb3O4}}. A bright red or orange solid, it is used as [[Minium (pigment)|pigment]], in the manufacture of [[lead–acid battery|batteries]], and [[rust]]proof [[primer (paint)|primer paints]]. It is an example of a [[mixed valence compound]], being composed of both [[oxidation number|Pb(II) and Pb(IV)]] in the ratio of two to one.<ref>{{Greenwood&Earnshaw2nd}}</ref> |
|||
This compound's [[Latin]] name ''minium'' originates from the [[Minius River]] in northwest [[Spain]] where it was first mined. [[Minium (mineral)|Natural minium]] is uncommon, forming only in extreme oxidizing conditions of [[lead]] ore bodies. The best specimens known come from [[Broken Hill]], [[New South Wales]], [[Australia]], where they formed as the result of a mine fire.<ref>[http://www.galleries.com/minerals/oxides/minium/minium.htm Minium]</ref> |

Lead |
Lead has a tetragonal crystal structure at room temperature, which transforms to an [[orthorhombic]] ([[Pearson symbol]] , [[Space group]] Pbam, No55) form at temperature 170K. This phase transition only changes the symmetry of the crystal and slightly modifies the interatomic distances and angles.<ref>{{cite journal|doi=10.1016/0022-4596(78)90081-6|title=Oxydes de plomb.

==Preparation== |
||
Lead |
Lead is prepared by [[calcination]] of [[lead(II) oxide]] (also called [[litharge]]) in air at about °C: |
||
: |
:6 PbO + → 2 |
||
The resulting material is contaminated with lead(II) oxide. If a pure compound is desired, PbO can be removed by a [[potassium hydroxide]] solution: |
|||
: PbO + KOH + H<sub>2</sub>O → K[Pb(OH)<sub>3</sub>] (aq) |
|||
The resulting material is contaminated with PbO. If a pure compound is desired, PbO can be removed by a [[potassium hydroxide]] solution: |
|||
Another method of preparation relies on annealing of [[lead carbonate]] ([[cerussite]]) in air: |
|||
:{{chem2|PbO + KOH + H2O → K[Pb(OH)3]}} |
|||
: 6 PbCO<sub>3</sub> + O<sub>2</sub> → 2 Pb<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> + 6 CO<sub>2</sub> |
|||
method annealing of [[ lead]]: |
|||
:{{chem2|6 PbCO3 + O2 → 2 Pb3O4 + 6 CO2}} |
|||
: 3 Pb<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>(OH)<sub>2</sub> + O<sub>2</sub> → 2 Pb<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> + 3 CO<sub>2</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O |
|||
Yet another method is [[oxidation|oxidative]] annealing of [[white lead]]: |
|||
In solution, lead tetroxide can be prepared e.g. by reaction of [[potassium plumbate]] with [[lead acetate]], yielding yellow insoluble lead tetroxide [[monohydrate]], Pb<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>·H<sub>2</sub>O, which can be turned into the anhydrous form by gentle heating: |
|||
:{{chem2|3 Pb2CO3(OH)2 + O2 → 2 Pb3O4 + 3 CO2 + 3 H2O}} |
|||
: K<sub>2</sub>PbO<sub>3</sub> + 2 Pb(OCOCH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O → Pb<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> + 2 KOCOCH<sub>3</sub> + 2 CH<sub>3</sub>COOH |
|||
In solution, lead(II,IV) oxide can be prepared by reaction of potassium [[plumbate]] with [[lead acetate|lead(II) acetate]], yielding yellow insoluble lead(II,IV) oxide [[monohydrate]] {{chem2|Pb3O4*H2O}}, which can be turned into the anhydrous form by gentle heating: |
|||
:{{chem2|K2PbO3 + 2 Pb(OCOCH3)2 + H2O → Pb3O4 + 2 KOCOCH3 + 2 CH3COOH}} |
|||
Natural [[minium (mineral)|minium]] is uncommon, forming only in extreme oxidizing conditions of [[lead]] ore bodies. The best known natural specimens come from [[Broken Hill]], [[New South Wales]], Australia, where they formed as the result of a [[mine fire]].<ref>[http://www.galleries.com/minerals/oxides/minium/minium.htm Minium]</ref> |

Red lead is virtually insoluble in water and in |
Red lead is virtually insoluble in water and in . However, it is soluble in [[hydrochloric acid]] present in the [[stomach]], and is therefore [[toxic]] when ingested. It also dissolves in [[glacial acetic acid]] and a diluted mixture of [[nitric acid]] and [[hydrogen peroxide]]. |
||
When heated to 500 |
When heated to 500°C, it decomposes to lead(II) oxide and oxygen. At 580°C, the reaction is complete. |

Red lead is used as a curing agent in some [[neoprene|polychloroprene]] rubber compounds. It is used in place of [[magnesium oxide]] to provide better water resistance properties. |
|||
Red lead was also used for engineer's [[Hand scraper|scraping]], before being supplanted by [[Engineer's blue]]. In [[traditional Chinese medicine]], red lead is used to treat [[ringworms]] and [[ulceration]]s, though the practice is limited due to its toxicity. |

== Physiological effects == |
|||
{{main|Lead poisoning}} |
|||
When inhaled, lead tetroxide irritates lungs. In case of high dose, the victim experiences a metallic taste, chest pain, and abdominal pain. When ingested, it is dissolved in the [[gastric acid]] and absorbed, leading to lead poisoning. High concentrations can be absorbed through skin as well, and it is important to follow safety precautions when working with lead-based paint. |
|||
It is also used as an adulterating agent in [[turmeric|turmeric powder]]. |
|||
Long-term contact with lead tetroxide may lead to accumulation of lead compounds in organisms, with development of symptoms of acute lead poisoning. Chronic poisoning displays as agitation, irritability, vision disorders, [[hypertension]], and also a grayish facial hue. |
|||
==Physiological effects== |
|||
Lead tetroxide was shown to be [[carcinogenic]] for laboratory animals. Its carcinogenicity for humans was not proven. |

==History== |
==History== |
||
This compound's [[Latin]] name ''minium'' originates from the [[Minho (river)|Minius]], a river in northwest [[Iberia]] where it was first mined. |
|||
Lead tetroxide was used as a red pigment in [[ancient Rome]], where it was prepared by [[calcination]] of [[white lead]]. In the ancient and medieval periods it was used as a pigment in the production of [[illuminated manuscript]]s, and gave its name to the ''minium'' or [[miniature (illuminated manuscript)|miniature]], a style of picture painted with the colour. As a finely divided powder, it was also sprinkled on [[dielectric]] surfaces to study [[Lichtenberg figures]]. |

|||
Made into a paint with [[linseed oil]], red lead was used as a durable paint to protect exterior ironwork. In 1504 the [[portcullis]] at [[Stirling Castle]] in Scotland was painted with red lead, as were cannons including [[Mons Meg]].<ref>[[James Balfour Paul]], ''Accounts of the Treasurer of Scotland'', vol. 2 (Edinburgh, 1900), p. 277.</ref> |

|||
In [[traditional Chinese medicine]], red lead is used to treat [[ringworms]] and [[ulceration]]s, though the practice is limited due to its toxicity. Also, ''azarcón'', a Mexican folk remedy for gastrointestinal disorders, contains up to 95% lead(II,IV) oxide.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Bose|first1=A.|last2=Vashistha|first2=K|last3=O'Loughlin|first3=B.
