10.5% Boron
A naturally occurring mineral salt also known as Sodium Borate. It is a vital source of Boron, an essential micronutrient for plant growth. Additionally, it serves as a flux in glass/ceramics and a buffering agent in detergents.
Borax Decahydrate is the refined form of natural sodium borate. Composed of boric oxide ($B_2O_3$), sodium oxide, and water, it is a mild alkaline salt with excellent buffering and fluxing properties. Ruvon International supplies high-purity (99.5% Min) Borax Decahydrate, ensuring consistent Boron content for agricultural efficacy and industrial performance.
In agriculture, Boron is critical for cell wall formation and reproductive growth. A deficiency leads to poor flowering and fruit set. Borax is the most common and effective Boron fertilizer for soil application.

Boron acts as the structural engineer for plants. It is essential for the formation and stability of cell walls, regulating the transport of sugars and starches. Without sufficient Boron (provided by Borax), plants suffer from brittle stems, poor root growth, and flower drop. It is especially critical during the reproductive stage for pollen tube growth and fruit development, directly impacting yield quality in fruits and vegetables.
Corrects Boron deficiency in soil. Essential for oilseeds, fruits, and vegetables.
Fluxing agent to lower melting point and improve thermal shock resistance (Borosilicate glass).
pH buffer, water softener, and bleaching agent activator (Perborates).
Inhibits flame spread and suppresses smoke generation in cellulose materials.
Flux for dissolving metal oxides in welding and soldering (Gold refining).
Used in formulations to control ants, cockroaches, and silverfish.
Standard laminated bags with inner PE liner.
Bulk packing for large-scale industrial consumers.
Borax is generally considered safe for industrial use but can be harmful if ingested in large quantities.
