Fields of application

  1. Industrial sector
    📌 Glass and Ceramics
    Function: Serves as a boron source in the production of borosilicate glass (e.g., heat-resistant cookware, laboratory vessels, mobile phone cover plates), significantly enhancing thermal stability, impact resistance, and chemical durability. Recommended applications: OLED display cover plates, high-end ceramic glazes.
    📌 Optimal boron solution
    Function: Environmentally friendly, halogen-free flame retardant; forms a vitrified carbon layer upon combustion, providing thermal insulation and oxygen exclusion.
    Suitable materials: timber, textiles, plastics, cable sheathing.
    Advantages: Low toxicity, smoke suppression, synergistic enhancement with other flame retardants.
    📌 Metallurgical industry
    Function: Acts as a flux to remove oxides from metal surfaces during welding/smelting processes, enhancing joint strength and metal purity.
    📌 Nuclear Industry
    Function: Utilising the strong neutron absorption capacity of boron-10 isotopes, it serves as a neutron absorber and moderator in nuclear power plants, ensuring operational safety.
    Requirements: High purity and low impurity levels are essential. Youboron can supply products meeting nuclear-grade standards.
  2. Agricultural sector
    📌 Trace element fertiliser
    Function: Supplies plants with essential boron, preventing issues such as poor fruit set, fruit drop, and stunted growth in crops including oilseed rape, cotton, and fruit trees.
    Application method: Foliar spray or soil application, also suitable as a raw material for compound fertilisers.
    Advantages: Excellent water solubility, rapid absorption, increased yield and improved quality.
  3. Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care
    📌 Disinfection and Preservation
    Usage: Diluted solution for use as an eye wash, in the care of skin infections, and as an adjunct treatment for eczema, exhibiting mild antibacterial and antifungal properties.
    Dosage forms: boric acid ointment, eye drops, mouthwash, etc.
    📌 cosmetics
    Purpose: As a pH adjuster and preservative in products such as emulsions and face masks.
  4. Other fields
    Chemical raw material: Used in the synthesis of borax, borate esters, boron carbide (a superhard material), and other compounds.
    Electroplating: Serves as a buffer and brightener in nickel plating electrolytes, enhancing coating quality.
    Wood preservation: Formulated with borax for insect and mould prevention in timber.
