The Diverse Applications of Lead Products: From Industrial Cornerstone to Lifeguard

2025-08-19 23

As a vital metal material in the modern industrial system, lead products, with their unique physical and chemical properties, play an irreplaceable role in energy, construction, healthcare, and other fields. Shandong yafeite is deeply engaged in the research and development and production of lead mineral products. This article analyzes the modern value of lead products from the perspectives of both product form and application scenarios.

 

I. Main Product Forms of Lead Products

1. Lead Sheet/Ingot

• High-purity lead sheet is widely used in the construction of radiation shielding walls in nuclear power plants and medical institutions; lead ingots are a core raw material for battery manufacturing.

2. Lead-acid Batteries

• A key energy storage unit in automobiles, communication base stations, and solar energy storage systems, accounting for over 80% of global lead consumption.

3. Lead Alloys (such as lead-antimony alloys and lead-calcium alloys)

• Improve mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, suitable for use in special environments such as cable sheathing and ship ballast.

4. Lead Compounds (lead oxide, lead sulfate, etc.)

• Used in ceramic glazes, PVC plastic stabilizers, and even as a highly safe colorant in cosmetics (subject to strict regulation).


 


II. Innovative Applications in Industry and Life

1. Green Energy

• With the booming new energy industry, lead-acid batteries are playing a role in peak load shaving and valley filling in photovoltaic energy storage systems. Shandong Jinmai provides customized lead materials with high cycle life to multiple companies.

2. Smart City Construction

• Lead alloy anti-corrosion coatings for 5G base station backup power supplies and underground pipelines ensure the safe operation of urban infrastructure.

3. Medical Protection

• Hospital CT rooms and dental X-ray machines use lead glass and lead doors to achieve precise radiation shielding, protecting the health of doctors and patients.

4. Life Safety

• Lead seals used in high-rise building fire protection systems are resistant to high temperatures and aging, safeguarding vital passages at critical moments.

 

III. Sustainability and Responsibility Commitment

As an industry leader, Yafeite strictly adheres to the "Standardized Conditions for the Lead and Zinc Industry" to promote green industry upgrades.

"The value of lead lies in its scientific application and full lifecycle management." We will continue to explore the potential of lead products in emerging fields and provide more solutions for industrial progress and human safety.
