Application

Descriptions:

• Boric acid is a weak acid.

• It is white crystal powder, or scaled crystal, feeling greasy, odorless.

• It's soluble in water, alcohol, glycerol, ethers and essential oils, in a weak acid solution. 

• The solubility of boric acid in water with temperature and increase, and can change with steam volatile.

Uses:

For fertilizer:

• Boric acid can be used as boron micronutrient fertilizer.

• Boric acid can be used for many crops, enhancing crop quality and increase production.

For glass industry:

• Boric acid is used extensively for the glass industry, optical glass, acid glass, heat-resistant glass, glass fiber insulation materials.

• Boric acid can improve the heat glass, transparent performance, increase mechanical strength, and shorten the melting time.

For ceramic industry:

• Boric acid can be used for making ceramics, glazes, cements, wicks, etc.

For leather dressing compounds:

• Boric acid is used for preparation of hides prior to tanning, artificial precious stones.

For other industry:

• Boric acid is one of the basic raw materials for other boride production.

• Boric acid has corrosion resistance function, can be used as a preservative, such as a wood preservative.

• Used as flux in metallurgical industry, fire-proofing compositions and linings for safes.

• Used for medicine and wood preservation.
