R61 May cause harm to the unborn child. 
R20/22 Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed. 
R33 Danger of cumulative effects. 
R50/53 Very toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.

Safety Statements about Lead(ii) fluoride (7783-46-2):
S53 Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use. 
S45 In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible). 
S60 This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste. 
S61 Avoid release to the environment. Refer to special instructions/safety data sheets.
Attention:
1. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container.
2. Handling: Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
3. Health Hazard: Not irritating to skin or mucuous membranes ;  protect against chronic poisoning. Early symptoms of lead intoxication via inhalation or ingestion are most commonly gastrointestinal disorders, colic, constipation, etc. ;  weakness, which may go on to paralysis chiefly of the extensor muscles of the wrists and less often the ankles, is noticeable in the most serious cases. Ingestion of a large amount causes local irritation of the alimentary tract ;  pain, leg cramps, muscle weakness, paresthesias, depression, coma, and death may follow in 1 or 2 days. Contact with eyes causes irritation.

NIOSH REL: (Inorganic Lead) TWA 0.10 mg(Pb)/m³

 Lead(ii) fluoride (7783-46-2) is a chemical compound that is an odorless white solid which sinks in water.It is incompatible with strong oxidizers.It is used in melting glasses,glass coatings to reflect infrared rays,phosphors for television-tube screens and used as a catalyst for the manufacture of picoline.It is obtained by treating lead(II) hydroxide or lead(II) carbonate with hydrofluoric acid, followed by evaporation of the solution:
Pb(OH)₂ + 2 HF → PbF₂ + 2 H₂O
Alternatively, it is precipitated by adding hydrofluoric acid to a lead(II) salt solution, or by adding potassium fluoride to a lead(II) nitrate solution.
2 KF + Pb(NO₃)₂ → PbF₂ + 2 KNO₃
