chromate
Yellow plating compound
A chromate is a salt or ester of chromic acid, containing the CrO₄²⁻ ion.
Chromates are typically yellow in color and have important industrial applications in corrosion prevention, pigments, and metal finishing.
Lead chromate once provided the vivid yellow in school buses and road markings before health concerns limited its use.
The water was tested for chromate contamination from the nearby factory.
