Uses
Lead difluoride is used in low melting glasses; in glass coatings to reflect infrared rays; in phosphors for television-tube screens; for nickel plating on glass; and as a catalyst for the manufacture of picoline. Lead(II) fluoride is used in fuses, glass coatings to reflect infrared rays and phosphors for television screens and in low melting glasses. Further, it serves as a catalyst for the preparation of picoline.
