Lead molybdate (PbMoO₄) is primarily used as a bright yellow pigment in paints, plastics, ceramics, and glass, valued for its opacity, chemical resistance, and thermal stability. It is also employed in phosphors for fluorescent lamps, cathode-ray tubes, and X-ray screens. In the electronics and scientific sectors, it serves as a scintillator crystal for high-energy radiation detection in particle physics experiments and medical imaging. Additionally, it finds applications in pyroelectric materials and advanced materials research.
