Sodium tetraborate

99%, 40-60 mesh

  • Product Code: 91099
  Alias:    Sodium tetraborate pentahydrate; Sodium boron oxide pentahydrate; Sodium tetraborate (pentahydrate)
  CAS:    12179-04-3
  Properties:    Soluble in hot water, glycerin, slightly soluble in ethanol, carbon tetrachloride. The aqueous solution is alkaline. When heated to 120°C, it completely loses the water of crystallization. It is stable in dry air, but slowly absorbs moisture in the air under humid conditions and turns into borax decahydrate. It has the properties of sterilization, disinfection, fluxing and high temperature adhesion. the
Molecular Weight: 291.29 g./mol Molecular Formula: B₄H₁₀Na₂O₁₂

Melting Point: 75℃ Boiling Point:
Density: 1.815g/cm3 Storage Condition: room temperature
Product Description: Sodium tetraborate is widely used as a cleaning agent in household products, particularly in laundry detergents and multipurpose cleaners, due to its ability to soften water and enhance the effectiveness of surfactants. It is also employed in the manufacturing of glass and ceramics, where it acts as a flux to lower the melting point of silica, improving the durability and thermal resistance of the final products. In the agricultural sector, it serves as a micronutrient fertilizer to correct boron deficiencies in soil, promoting healthy plant growth. Additionally, it is utilized in the formulation of insecticides and wood preservatives, offering protection against pests and fungal decay. In the cosmetics industry, it is found in some skin care products for its mild antiseptic and buffering properties.
