Lead is a heavy metal and has several useful mechanical properties including high density, low melting point, ductility, and relative inertness. Lead is a chemical element with the atomic number 82. It has the highest atomic number of any stable element. Lead is soft and malleable, and has a relatively low melting point. When freshly cut, lead is bluish-white; it tarnishes to a dull gray color when exposed to air. Lead is weak and has metallic character which is illustrated by its amphoteric nature. Lead and lead oxides react with acids and bases, and tends to form covalent bonds. Lead is easily extracted from its ores. Lead's high density, low melting point, ductility and relative inertness to oxidation make it useful. These properties, combined with its relative abundance and low cost, resulted in its extensive use in construction, plumbing, batteries, bullets and shot, weights, solders, pewters, fusible alloys, white paints, leaded gasoline, and radiation shielding.

Lead is widely used in batteries, cable sheaths, machinery
manufacturing, shipbuilding, light industry, lead oxide, radiation protection,
and other industries. The primary application for lead is in the battery
production industry. In the past, lead was used in the cable sheath industry;
however, its high density and toxicity led to it being gradually replaced by
plastic and other materials. Lead is used in the manufacture of bearing alloys,
solder alloys, and abrasive alloys that are employed in the manufacturing of
machinery. Lead possesses good corrosion resistance properties, and hence, it
can be used in the manufacture of lead plate, plumbing, and other alloy
materials to protect ships from marine corrosion in shipbuilding. Lead oxide is
primarily utilized for battery paste in lead-acid batteries, as well as in the
production of plastic stabilizers, rubber vulcanization agents, ceramic glaze
additives, ray proof glass, optical glass and crystal glass, and various kinds
of paints, coatings, etc. It is utilized by hospital personnel and other workers
who work in high radiation environment in order to protect against the harmful
effects of radiation. Additionally, lead can also be employed in the post and
telecommunications industries, metallurgy, chemical, railways, transportation,
construction, weapons, aerospace, aviation, oil and other industries.

Lead acid batteries are predominantly used in automobiles such as
passenger cars, commercial cars, and motorcycles. Rapid urbanization and
industrialization in various developing countries across the globe are major
factors driving the lead market.
Increase in requirement of uninterrupted power supply in industries, corporate
offices, hospitals, research institutions, educational institutes, and houses
further boosts the demand for these batteries. Implementation of smart grid
projects, deployment of vehicle charging infrastructure, increasing usage of
hybrid and electric vehicles, and increasing installation of renewable energy
systems are some of the underlying demand drivers for the global lead market.
Several government regulations on the usage of the lead in paints and
industries due to its adverse environmental impact has hampered the growth of
the lead market.
