In developed countries, lead has become an independent consumption destination, especially in Britain, where lead skin is used as roof material to prevent radiation caused by atmosphere atoms. However, the output of lead materials in China is very small, with an annual output of about 10000 tons. With the improvement of people's life, lead materials may become one of the main consumption uses of lead.

Metal lead is a kind of corrosion resistant heavy non-ferrous metal material, which has low melting point, high corrosion resistance, X-ray and γ Due to the advantages of non penetrability and good plasticity, such as ray, etc., it is often processed into plates and pipes, which are widely used in chemical industry, cable, battery, radioactive protection and other industrial sectors.
