AMMONIUM TETRABORATE TETRAHYDRATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

tetr colorless crystal(s); unstable, has an appreciable ammonia vapor pressure; uses: fireproofing wood and textiles [MER06] [STR93] [KIR78]

Uses

• Determination of nucleation kinetics of ammonium biborate tetrahydrate: This study focuses on the metastable zone widths (MZW) of ammonium biborate tetrahydrate, both in its pure state and in the presence of impurities, providing insights into its crystallization kinetics and stability (O Sahin et al., 2014).
