Additional Description
Toxic by inhalation, noncombustible
Applications:
- Borax can inhibit the growth of wood-damaging fungi and help to protect wood products against pests. That means wood treated with Borax can be used in construction in areas that would otherwise be off limits because of rot or termites.
- The fire-retardant capabilities of borax products make them a perfect choice for housing and wiring insulation.
- Ultra-high strength steel, made with borax, is much harder than other metals and makes cars lighter and less vulnerable to corrosion.
- Borax used in the production of ceramic frits help to create robust glazes and enamels, for longer-lasting tiles, roofs, silos, appliances, and more.
- Boron is an essential nutrient for crop growth. Boron supplementation can enable farmers to increase crop yield and quality, which can help to reduce bottom-line food costs.
- Borax is used as flux for soldering and welding (including forge welding and welding electrodes)
Cannot be used in food applications and are labeled accordingly. Therefore, Borate products shall not be used as food additives or preservatives.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid (EDTA)
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid (EDTA), also known as edetic acid, is a white, odorless crystalline powder widely used as a chelating agent in various industries. With the chemical formula C₁₀H₁₆O₈N₂ and a molecular weight of 292.25, EDTA binds to metal ions such as Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ and Ca²⁺, forming water-soluble complexes even at neutral pH. This property makes it essential in dissolving metal-containing scales and delivering iron ions in chemical processing, agriculture, water treatment, and hydroponics. In the pulp and paper industry, EDTA inhibits metal ions, especially Mn²⁺, from degrading hydrogen peroxide during bleaching. It also stabilizes colors in textiles by preventing metal ion impurities from altering dyed products. EDTA serves as an anticoagulant in blood analysis, preserving samples by chelating calcium ions. In personal care products like shampoos and cleaners, EDTA salts improve stability by sequestering metal ions. Additionally, EDTA acts as a preservative in foods, preventing catalytic oxidative discoloration caused by metal ions. Its versatility makes it indispensable in industrial, agricultural, and consumer applications.

Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate, Min 96%
Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate (NaBO₃·4H₂O), with a minimum purity of 96%, is a technical-grade compound primarily used as a stable source of active oxygen. It serves a range of applications, including developing vat dyes, textile bleaching, and in the formulation of synthetic detergents and laundry products. Compared to more aggressive bleach alternatives like sodium hypochlorite, Sodium Perborate is less harsh on fabrics and dyes, making it ideal for cleaning and laundry bleaches. It is also used in dental compositions, electroplating, and as a laboratory reagent. The product is available as a white powder, sometimes forming clumps, and is moderately toxic by ingestion. Due to its strong oxidizing properties, it poses a fire risk when in contact with organic materials. Sodium Perborate Tetrahydrate is available for ground shipping via UPS or FedEx and cannot be shipped by air or priority services.
