Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate Cas 12280-03-4

Agricultural/High-efficiency rapid-dissolving boron fertilizer: Suitable for foliar spraying, drip irrigation, and fertigation; supplements boron for fruit trees, vegetables, and oil crops; prevents issues such as flowering without fruit set, blossom and fruit drop, and fruit deformity; compatible with most water-soluble fertilizers and pesticides.
Wood preservation: Wood impregnation agent; protects against insects (termites, wood-boring beetles), mold, and decay; the aqueous solution penetrates wood fibers, forming a stable boron-salt protective layer upon drying; suitable for protecting wooden structures, landscaping timber, and wood-based panels.
Eco-friendly boron-based flame retardants: Applications include cellulose, paper, wood-based composites, and rubber/plastic fillers; upon heating, forms a glassy boron oxide layer that blocks oxygen, suppressing smoke and inhibiting flames.
Biocides: Indoor insect and mold control; antimicrobial and anti-mite treatment for carpets and building materials; inhibits fungi and certain crawling pests.
Personal care and coatings: pH adjuster and preservative synergist for water-based coatings and adhesives; not recommended for direct use in leave-on cosmetics.
Laboratory reagents: Preparation of boron standard solutions; reagent for inorganic boron chemical research.
