BORAX ANHYDROUS

BORAX ANHYDROUS is a free-flowing mixture consisting of clear, glass-like particles and white granules. This material is created by crushing large quantities of fused materials and is entirely anhydrous borax, resulting from the dehydration and fusion of decahydrate borax. Upon cooling, the fused product transforms into an amorphous, glassy form.

    Physical Form
    Appearance
    A free flowing mixture of clear, glass - like particles and white granules formed by the crushing of relatively large masses of fused materials.
    General Properties

    Stability: On exposure, anhydrous borax, PYROBOR®, slowly absorbs moisture, gradually reverting back to a hydrate. The clear, glassy particles become white and opaque.

    Other Information: PYROBOR® is completely anhydrous borax produced by the dehydration and fusion of decahydrate borax. On cooling, the fused product converts to an amorphous (glassy) form. The chemical equivalent of 100 pounds (or kilos) of decahydrate is contained in 52.8 pounds (or kilos) of anhydrous borax.
