Litharge: Lead Oxidised in Air, Then Fused

Melted lead left open to the air grows a yellow skin of lead oxide. Melted again, that oxide sets into reddish-yellow scales: litharge, the drier in boiled oil and a flux for glazes and glass. Andrew Ure (1839) describes both steps; in the silver works it ran off the hearth where lead was refined. Lead oxide is poisonous: work outdoors. The picture: the two forms of lead oxide, red litharge and yellow massicot.

Ama-blueprint ahlobene

Lama-blueprint abelana ngolwazi — amasu, izinto noma izimiso

CC0 Isizinda Somphakathi

Le blueprint ikhishwe ngaphansi kwe-CC0. Ukhululekile ukukopisha, ukuguqula, ukusabalalisa, nokusebenzisa ngaphandle kwemvume.

Sekela uMenzi ngokuthenga imikhiqizo nge-Blueprint yabo IKhomishane Yomenzi kumiswe ngabathengisi, noma dala inguqulo entsha yale Blueprint bese uyifaka njengoxhumaniso ku-Blueprint yakho ukuze wabelane ngemali engenayo.
