Ammonium tetraborate ((NH4)2B4O7) - Introduction
diammonium tetraborate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NH4B(OH)4. The following is a description of the nature, use, formulation and safety information of diammonium tetraborate:
Nature:
- diammonium tetraborate is a colorless crystalline solid with no odor.
-It has good solubility and can be quickly dissolved in water.
-The aqueous solution of diammonium tetraborate is acidic.
Use:
- diammonium tetraborate is commonly used to prepare other boron compounds, such as boric acid, sodium borate, etc.
-It can also be used as a flame retardant and can be added to materials such as plastics, textiles and wood to improve its flame retardant properties.
- diammonium tetraborate can also be used as a metal surface treatment agent to provide anti-corrosion and anti-rust effects.
-In addition, diammonium tetraborate is also used in the preparation of other chemicals, the pharmaceutical industry, and pesticides.
Preparation Method:
The preparation method of-diammonium tetraborate is usually obtained by reacting boric acid with ammonia water (ammonia solution).
-The reaction equation is: H3BO3 NH4OH → NH4B(OH)4
Safety Information:
- diammonium tetraborate is relatively stable at room temperature, but it is necessary to avoid contact with strong oxidants and strong reducing agents.
-It will decompose at high temperature to produce nitrogen oxide and boron oxide. Pay attention to avoid high temperature.
- diammonium tetraborate dust may be irritating to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract and should be used with appropriate personal protective equipment.
-If you accidentally inhale or come into contact with diammonium tetraborate, clean the affected area immediately and seek medical advice promptly.
