Maybe you can use the synthesis protocol for the lead oxide nanoparticles and than perform a reduction using H2.

Kalaiarasi Sivaji

But, Can it be possible to use lead here in the above mentioned electro chemical synthesis method as lead has very low electrical conductivity?

Daniel Clark

Kalaiarasi, the formation of pure metal nanoparticles is much less common then metal oxides, but here is another paper which may help you out:
