Borax Powder

Borax, scientifically termed sodium borate, presents itself as a fine white powder. This versatile compound finds its application across a spectrum of uses. It's a staple in households for cleaning purposes and serves as a constituent in laundry detergents. Beyond domestic settings, it plays a pivotal role in metal soldering, the production of glazes and enamels, and even in the tanning of animal hides. Its influence extends to wood treatment, as it imparts artificial aging to timber and safeguards it from fungal deterioration. Additionally, the field of analytical chemistry benefits from borax's presence, as it operates as a buffering agent. In the realm of pharmaceuticals, borax serves as an alkalizing agent, aiding in the formulation of medicinal products. It is also suitable for metal melting, jewelry refining and casting, as well as metallurgical processing where it functions effectively as a flux. Notably, this multipurpose substance hails from Turkey.
