The 20 pages that link to Lead, each with the reason it gives.

• Lead poisoningNarrower topic: This toxic element accumulates in the body and drives the illness.

• Sulfide mineralRelated: Smelting galena is a principal route to producing lead.

• TinCompared with: Lead was once commonly alloyed with tin in solder, but toxicity drove many substitutions.

• Radiation shieldingRelated: Its density makes it effective for photons, but it is less suitable for slowing fast neutrons.

• BismuthCompared with: Bismuth often replaces lead where lower toxicity is desirable, though the elements differ in behavior.

• Frederick SoddyRelated: Soddy’s study of radioactive series showed that different origins could produce distinct forms of lead.

• PoloniumRelated: Alpha decay of polonium produces lead isotopes.

• SolderRelated: Lead lowers the melting temperature of tin-lead solder but poses health hazards.

• Lead(II) ionNarrower topic: Removing two electrons from a neutral lead atom produces Pb²⁺.

• IndiumCompared with: Lead has historically appeared in low-melting alloys, while indium offers alternatives in some applications.

• Post-transition metalBroader topic: Its batteries and radiation shielding show both utility and health risks.

• Anselm KieferRelated: Kiefer uses lead’s weight and malleability to give his books and surfaces a material sense of history.

• Lead(II) sulfideRelated: Lead supplies the metal ions in the compound.

• Lead dioxideNarrower topic: Lead dioxide is one of lead’s common oxides and inherits its toxicity.

• CrocoiteRelated: Lead supplies the metal cation in crocoite’s composition.

• Basic lead phosphiteNarrower topic: Lead is the metal component responsible for the compound's toxicity and stabilizer identity.

• Fusible alloyRelated: Lead was widely used in classic fusible-alloy recipes before health risks drove restrictions and substitutions.

• Lead(II,IV) oxideNarrower topic: The element forms both oxidation states present in Pb₃O₄.

• Liquation (metallurgy)Related: Lead could be melted out of silver-bearing copper alloys during historical liquation.

• Sodium calcium edetateRelated: The drug targets lead ions that circulate in the body after exposure.
