white crystals. Soluble in water, alkaline aqueous solution, slightly soluble in alcohol.
Potassium Carbonate neutralization method the dissolved potassium carbonate solution was placed in a reaction tank, and boric acid was slowly added at a constant temperature to carry out a reaction. After completion, the solution was filtered to remove water-insoluble matters. Then by cooling, crystallization, centrifugal separation, drying, prepared potassium borate products. Further purification, can be prepared reagent products.
It can be used as a casein solvent and an antiwear additive for manufacturing a disinfectant, and can also be used as a component of a welding flux and a component of a diazo-type developing solution. In chemical analysis, it is used as the most suitable standard substance for determining the titer of acid.
