Borax Decahydrate
Borax Decahydrate looks simple until it hits real plant conditions. Water temperature, dissolution rate, and the borate balance you actually deliver decide whether your detergent batch stays clear and stable or whether your intermediate step drifts and needs correction. SGS & Company supply Borax Decahydrate 99% with lot traceability, documentation support for approvals, and supply planning that avoids mid month substitutions, backed by safer sourcing practices and one point coordination from Chemical Exporters in India.
About Borax Decahydrate
Borax Decahydrate is sodium tetraborate supplied with crystallisation water, used as a borate source and alkalinity buffer. In purchasing terms, the decahydrate form matters because it affects active borate per kilogram and how fast it dissolves in your makeup tank. Buyers typically evaluate assay, insoluble matter, moisture behaviour in storage, and solution clarity at the concentration they run. During quotation, COA format, test methods, and grade alignment notes can be shared for QA acceptance.

Applications
Home Care
- ♦Used as a buffer and builder support in detergent and cleaner formulations, where controlled alkalinity helps performance and storage stability. Teams typically select borax when they want a borate system that tolerates hard water variation and helps keep formulations consistent during seasonal water changes.
Chemical Intermediates
- ♦Used as a borate source in process chemistry where borate ions influence reaction behaviour, complexation, or downstream workup. Plants often evaluate dissolution behaviour and insolubles because those two factors decide whether filtration, clarity, or yield becomes a recurring issue.
Safety & Handling
- ♦Avoid breathing dust during charging and use goggles and gloves.
- ♦Keep bags tightly closed and dry to reduce caking and exposure.
- ♦Follow the supplied SDS and obtain special instructions before use due to reproductive toxicity classification.
