Description: Boron serves as a versatile agent for cleaning and bleaching. It plays a crucial role in controlling the alkalinity of soaps and synthetic detergents, as well as balancing active oxygen. Additionally, it acts as a water softener, reducing the time and heat required for washing while preventing metal and machine corrosion. Borates find extensive application in personal care products, household cleaners, and industrial cleaners, serving various purposes such as abrasion, germicide, and bleaching. Borax has even been employed for flea control. The selection of a boron product depends on factors like the other ingredients present, as well as the composition, quality, and type of the final product. Cleaning and laundering formulations can incorporate Borax Decahydrate, Borax Pentahydrate, Boric Acid, or Anhydrous Borax.
