Corrosion inhibitor Mixed with ethylene glycol in automobile motor cooling systems. Boric acid can be applied as corrosion and anti-freeze. Besides, it can be used in heat treating, metallic products, hydraulic fluids and brewing. Wood preservatives and pesticides It is a very useful tool in both controlling and eliminating insects and fungi. Furthermore, results are good independient of location and environment. It is a toxic element to ants, scarabs, larvages and other insects. However, is not dangerous to mammals. Pharmaceutical application It is applied as a PH buffer and as a moderate antiseptic agent and emulsifier. In addition it is also a component of: • Mouth – whashes • Bath salts • Shampoos • Creams • Ointments, etc Ceramics Because melting point can be reduced by it’s elements, boric acid can be also used on production of ceramic frits and borosilicate glazes. Metallurgy The boron content eliminates impurities metallurgist *****’s why, a high and pure material has gotten. This material is able to provide great results on electrical conductors especially. Glass Industry & Fiber glass Boric acid is applied in glass industry to reduce thermal and mechanical shocks and Boron provide great results on fiberglass and boronsilicate glass, wich is the strong heat-resistant glass that contains a minimum of 5 percent boric oxide. What’s more, boron fiber offer a magnificent high tensile strength and can be added to plastic in order to make a material that is stronger than steel yet and lighter than aluminium.
