Borax Decahydrate is the refined form of natural sodium borate and has the chemical formula Na₂B₄O₇.10H₂O. Composed of boric oxide (B₂O₃), sodium oxide, and water, it is a mild, alkaline salt, white and crystalline, with excellent buffering and fluxing properties.

Available in crystalline (granular) or powder form, Borax Decahydrate is an important multifunctional source of B₂O₃, particularly for processes in which the simultaneous presence of sodium is beneficial.
