use

Mainly used in glass and enamel industries. In glass, it can enhance the transmittance of ultraviolet rays and improve the transparency and heat resistance of glass. In enamel products, it can prevent the glaze from falling off and make it shiny. It is also widely used in special optical glass, glass fiber, solder for non-ferrous metals, adhesive for jewelry, printing and dyeing, washing (silk and wool fabrics, etc.), gold refining, cosmetics, pesticides, fertilizers, borax soap, preservatives, antifreeze and medical disinfectants.

Borax is the basic raw material for preparing boron-containing compounds, and almost all boron compounds can be prepared from borax. They have important and extensive uses in metallurgy, steel, machinery, military industry, cutting tools, papermaking, electronic tubes, chemicals, textiles and other sectors.

In medicine, borax is used for disinfection and preservation of skin and mucous membranes, treatment of fluorosis, tinea pedis, pulpitis, candidal vaginitis, cervical erosion, bedsores, acne, external auditory canal eczema, herpes virus skin diseases, epilepsy, and for the treatment of tumors. In veterinary medicine, borax is used to treat chicken laryngotracheitis, goat infectious pustular disease, swine mycoplasma pneumonia, and cattle chronic mucinous endometritis. It has also attracted much attention as a feed additive.

Used as a herbicide for total weed control in non-cultivated areas. In addition to being used alone, it can also be mixed with sodium chlorate to reduce its flammability.

In industry, borax is the most important industrial boron mineral. Borax is the most important compound of boron. Boron is often listed as a rare element abroad, but there are abundant borax mines in my country. Therefore, boron is not a rare element in my country, but an abundant element. In industry, borax is also used as a solid lubricant in metal wire drawing and other aspects.

It is often used as (inactive) flux to purify metal surfaces in welding maintenance of refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and other refrigeration equipment. To remove oxides from metal surfaces, add a certain proportion of sodium chloride to borax. Compounds such as sodium fluoride and potassium chloride can be used as active flux for welding copper pipes and steel pipes, and between steel pipes in refrigeration equipment.
