Borax Decahydrate is the refined form of natural sodium borate. Composed of boric
oxide (B2O3), sodium oxide, and water, it is a mild, alkaline salt, white and
crystalline, with excellent buffering and fluxing properties. Available in powder or
granular form, Borax Decahydrate is an important multifunctional source of B2O3,
particularly for processes in which the simultaneous presence of sodium is
beneficial.

Antifreezes (engine coolant)
Glycol-based antifreezes can oxidize to produce corrosive organic
acids in automotive coolant systems. The buffering action of
borates keeps the pH above 7 – preventing acid formation and
inhibiting corrosion.
Lubricants
Borate polyols and polyamines in lubricants form an extremely
resilient film on metal load-bearing surfaces. This film improves
load capacity and protects from wear and tear. Potassium borates
are used in high pressure lubricants due to their stable dispersion
of microspheres.
Brake fluids
Brake fluids are moisture sensitive. Absorbtion of water by the
system reduces the boiling point of the fluid and can cause
vapor-lock. Borates in brake fluids act to prevent vapor-lock.
Metalworking fluids
Borates act as bacteriostatic agents in metal cutting emulsions.
They are also corrosion inhibitors.Boric acid esters have led to
high quality water-miscible cutting fluids with longer emulsion
charge life.
