General Description

Borax decahydrate is the refined form of natural sodium borate. Composed of boric oxide (B2O3 ), sodium oxide, and water, it is a mild, alkaline salt, white and crystalline, with excellent buffering and fluxing properties. Available in powder or granular form, borax decahydrate is an important multi-functional source of B2O3 , particularly for processes in which the simultaneous presence of sodium is beneficial. Borax decahydrate is incorporated in many cleaning products as a pH buffering agent, to aid in the emulsification of oils, and as a gentle abrasive. Borax decahydrate is added to powdered hand soaps to remove medium to heavy soils encountered in industrial operations.
