Some Applications and Benefits
Insulating Fiberglass
Borax Pentahydrate as boron compound is used in insulation fiberglass. It is applied to the
wall and ceiling as using it in building insulation in construction sector.
Glass
Borax Pentahydrate is added to glass products where thermo-insulation is needed. Because
when it is added to molten glass intermediates it increases viscosity, surface hardness and
durability.
Agriculture
Boron is an element which should be in soil needed for growing and developing plants. Borax
Pentahydrate is used in agriculture for increasing efficiency and quality of yield.

ceramics. Borate usage in glazes differs according to solubility of them in water. Borax
Pentahydrate is used in ceramics as glaze raw material because of having high solubility in
water.
Flame Retardants
Flame retardants prevent inflaming and spreading of flame. Borates are used in different
materials as flame retardant. Borates cover materials by melting and prevent burning of
material by cutting off contact of oxygen with flame.
Metallurgy
Borax Pentahydrate is used as product which is a protective forming slag and it accelerates
melting in non-ferrous metal industry. Because it could form smooth, adhesive, protective and
clean, burr-free liquid at high temperatures.
Construction
Borax Pentahydrate is used in making buildings as earthquake-resistant, high strength and
heat resistant. Also, Borax Pentahydrate has a significant use in terms of heat and sound
insulation.
Antifreeze
Borax is also used as anti-freeze additive mixture to prevent corrosion in cooling systems of
vehicles.
Adhesive
In arranging viscosity of starchy adhesives and in solvent of casein adhesives, Borax
Pentahydrate is used.
Leatherworking
On leatherworking, Borax Pentahydrate is used as lime expectorant.
