Overview of Boric Acid
Boric Acid is a white crystalline compound widely used in glass, ceramics, detergents, cosmetics, agriculture, and industrial chemical applications. It functions as a buffer, antiseptic, flame retardant, and pH regulator, making it a versatile raw material in both household and industrial formulations. Its chemical stability and high purity ensure consistent performance in precise industrial and laboratory processes.
In industrial and laboratory applications, Boric Acid is valued for its reliability and multifunctionality. It is commonly used alongside Borax Pentahydrate, Borax Decahydrate, Aluminium Stearate, and Sodium Carbonate, all available on ChemicalBull, providing formulators and manufacturers with a complete solution for glass, ceramics, detergents, and chemical processes.
