Main Applications

Glass & Ceramics: Acts as a flux to lower melting temperature, improve transparency and thermal stability of glass; enhances glaze hardness and gloss in ceramics.

Metallurgy & Welding: Used as a soldering flux to remove metal oxides, improving the strength of brazing joints.

Detergents & Cleaning: Serves as a water softener and pH buffer to boost detergency, especially for delicate fabrics like silk and wool.

Refractory Materials: Stabilizes refractory products and forms a rigid skeleton structure.

Chemical Industry: Raw material for manufacturing other boron compounds (e.g., boric acid, borates).

Laboratory Reagent: Prepares buffer solutions for biochemical analysis.
