Literature Review
Literature Review
This part reviewed about each content of this website in the order of background, property&application, process route and manufacturing.
Process Route
Process Route
This part gives a brief overview of how lead is made. The process route of this kind of metal is divided into two ways, concentrating from lead battery or ores. Each of them is generally composed of 3 steps. But due to the limitation of technical route, more than half of the high purity lead is recovered from batteries.
Safety Data Sheet
Safety data sheet
As a toxic heavy metal, the safety of lead is worth paying attention to. This part focuses on safety issues of lead, briefly summarized lead’s safety information from 16 different aspects.

Applications
Lead is applied to a wide range of fields currently. This section briefly analyzes and summarizes the application of lead from two different state, elemental form and compound. In elemental form, due to the properties of corrosion resistance, high density, and the cheap price, it is often used in construction industry or made into lead-acid battery. For compound, many kinds of lead compound are used as oxidizing agent, paints or semiconductors.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing
Manufacturing part deals with how lead is processed and moulded. In this section, 4 most common type of lead processing method--rolling, cold stamping, die casting and joined by wielding are introduced.
