Calcium plumbate is an inorganic chemical that has been used extensively as an anticorrosive pigment in paints and coatings.
[10] It is usually manufactured by the reaction of calcium oxide (CaO) and lead oxide (PbO) at high temperature in the presence of excess oxygen.
[13] The effects of paint containing calcium plumbate dust have likewise been studied and analytical techniques developed to assess lead content.
[14][15] Studies also include finding calcium plumbate in soils and further possible bioaccumulation.
[16] The demand for lead in all forms is decreasing worldwide,[17] though the use of calcium plumbate and other heavy metal compounds in cement and concrete is subject to recent research and the specific toxicology studied.
