Lead Nitrate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- lead(II) Nitrate
- Plumbous Nitrate
- Lead Dinitrate
- Pb(NO3)2
Lead nitrate supplier for mining, chemical manufacturing and laboratory buyers in Malaysia. Also written as lead(II) nitrate, plumbous nitrate and Pb(NO3)2 (CAS 10099-74-8), it is a white to colourless crystalline salt that dissolves readily in water.
The commercial choice sits between technical grade crystals for plant make-up and analytical or reagent grade for method work, with a higher-purity option for precursor duty. Crystal size drives dissolution rate and dust, so say whether crystals or a finer crystalline powder fits the process.
Gold and silver operations dose lead nitrate in cyanidation circuits. Match and pyrotechnic producers, nylon and polyester stabiliser formulators, dyers working with mordants and analytical laboratories each buy it for their own reasons, and each specifies a different grade.
Lead nitrate is a distinct product from lead acetate, lead oxide and lead carbonate, so name the salt the process needs. Send the grade, form, quantity, delivery location and intended use with your enquiry, and availability, packing, documentation and timing are confirmed with the quotation. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Lead Nitrate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical grade lead nitrate crystals | white to colourless crystals | — | Process make-up and reagent solution preparation at plant scale, including leach circuit dosing in gold and silver hydrometallurgy and general industrial batching where a soluble lead salt is specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Analytical and reagent grade lead nitrate | fine white crystalline powder or crystals | — | Titration, gravimetric and precipitation work in laboratories, plus standard solution preparation where tighter purity and impurity control is written into the method. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| High-purity lead nitrate | white crystalline solid | — | Precursor duty for other lead compounds and speciality formulations that call for lower impurity limits than a general technical crystal grade carries. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Lead Nitrate applications
Safety and handling
Keep containers closed and stored dry, cool and well ventilated, kept apart from combustible and reducing materials, and control dust during transfer and weighing. Lead compounds call for controlled handling, so work to the safety data sheet issued for the grade quoted. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about lead nitrate
What grades of lead nitrate can be requested?
Technical grade crystals cover plant make-up and leach circuit dosing, analytical or reagent grade covers laboratory titration and precipitation work, and a higher-purity grade suits precursor and speciality duty. Name the grade and any impurity limits in the enquiry.
Is lead nitrate the same as lead(II) nitrate?
Yes, the same salt. Lead(II) nitrate states the oxidation state explicitly, plumbous nitrate is the older common name, lead dinitrate appears on some labels, and Pb(NO3)2 is the formula buyers with a specification sheet type.
What is the difference between lead nitrate and lead acetate?
They are separate products with separate specifications. Lead nitrate is the nitrate salt used in leach circuits and nitrate chemistry, while lead acetate is the acetate salt with its own uses and handling. Order whichever one the process calls for by name.
Why does gold and silver leaching call for lead nitrate?
It is used as a cyanidation accelerator on certain ores, where a soluble lead salt is written into the leach recipe. The dose and the response belong to the operation's own test work, so send the circuit requirement and quantity rather than asking for a recommended rate.
How is lead nitrate packed and handled?
It is a crystalline solid, so pack format follows grade, quantity and destination and is confirmed with the quotation. Handling is a matter of keeping containers closed, controlling dust and following the safety data sheet for the grade supplied.
What details are needed for a lead nitrate price enquiry?
Send the grade, form, target assay or impurity limits, quantity, delivery location and intended application. Mention preferred pack format, documentation and required timing so the quotation answers the whole requirement in one reply.
