  • Boron is present in different forms in soil, the most prevalent of which is Boric Acid (H3BO3). Boron levels in soil should be between 12 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg. Boron deficit occurs when the boron concentration of the soil falls below 0.14 mg/kg. Because boric acid occurs in an undissociated form that the plant cannot absorb, it is seen with high pH in basic soils. https://borates.today/boron-deficiency-symptom-cure/

  • When boron particles are irradiated, they heat up to around 378 °C. At this temperature, it reacts with water, producing hydrogen and boron oxides in situ. Boron oxides act as "traps" for CO2 molecules. In the presence of the light-activated boron catalyst, hydrogen is extremely reactive and efficiently reduces CO2 by providing the necessary protons (H+) and electrons. https://borates.today/boron-reduces-carbon-dioxide/

  • Many organoboron compounds are known, and many of them are significant in chemical synthesis. Several are made through hydroboration, which uses diborane, B2H6, a simple borane molecule.

    Organoboron compounds, such as tetraphenylborate, [B(C6H5)4], and triphenylborane, B(C6H5)3, are commonly tetrahedral or trigonal planar. When numerous boron atoms react, they generate unique dodecahedral (12-sided) and icosahedral (20-sided) structures that are primarily made of boron atoms or carbon heteroatoms. https://borates.today/boron-chemistry/

  • drLisatorres - Borax is a naturally occurring mineral compound with the formula Na2O·3B2O3·5H2O. Borax occurs in nature as a white or light yellow crystalline solid. It can be found in several locations on Earth, including Afghanistan, Australia, Brazil, China, Egypt, India, Iran, Japan, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia, South Africa, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and the USA. Natural deposits of borax exist in many parts of North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, and Antarctica.
  • smithjamess221 - The use of boric acid as an additive for polymers and plastics dates back to the 1950s. It was first used by DuPont in their Teflon® line of products. Since then it has become one of the most widely used additives for plastic resins. In addition to its use as a flame retardant, boric acid also acts as a stabiliser, plasticiser, and anti-oxidant.

  • As research into nanotechnology applications has increased, nanoparticles have become the focus of attention for their potential in medication delivery systems. Nanocarriers guarantee that the proper amount of a medicine reaches the right spot at the right time, bypassing obstacles such as acidic stomach pH, liver processing, and enhanced blood circulation. Researchers discovered how cells respond to boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) holding fluorescent sensors or chemicals by monitoring cellular localisation and analysing the in vitro release and biological activity of a medication (Curcumin) packaged in BNNTs. https://borates.today/boron-nitride-biomedical-nanotechnologies/

  • Kimberly_Adams2320 - The term "bioactive" refers to any material with some sort of effect on living organisms. It's not just about drugs. For example, if you put a piece of metal in your mouth, it will affect your teeth. If you put a piece of plastic in your mouth, it may affect your digestive system.
  • drLisatorres - In addition to being used as drug carriers, BNNTs can also be used as biosensors, which are devices that detect specific molecules in the body. These sensors could help doctors identify diseases earlier than they would otherwise.
  • smithjamess221 - The most common type of sensor is an electrochemical one, where a current is generated when the target molecule binds to it. This current is then measured and translated into a signal that indicates whether there is a disease present.

  • Boron's intrinsic resistance to electrical current evaporates when it is chilled to 6 kelvin and compressed to 160 gigapascals, making it a superconductive element. The temperatures and pressures at which Boron alters its properties to become a superconductor are known as the transition temperature and transition pressure. When this happens, boron's conductivity matches that of copper or aluminium! https://borates.today/boron-superconductive-element/

  • smithjamess221 - Boron was in the late 1980s, when researchers discovered that Boron could be used to make an ultrafast laser. This was exciting because lasers were then still very expensive
  • jenniferramirez3232 - Boron had been used by NASA to make their space suits more comfortable. They were using Boron because it has a very low melting point (which makes it easy to mould into complex shapes) and also because it conducts electricity extremely well. This meant that astronauts could wear clothes made from Boron without suffering any electric shocks.
  • jessicaallen33 - "In December 2013, researchers announced they had created a new type of superconductor using boron atoms instead of nitrogen atoms. This discovery could lead to more energy efficient power generation by replacing the need for liquid helium with a less expensive refrigerant."

  • As a reducer in sodium hydrosulfite (Na2S2O4) bleach, sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is employed in the mechanical pulping process. Wood's lignin is decolored by the chemical hydrosulfite. Chemical pulping, on the other hand, almost removes it. Lignin is responsible for the brownish colour of mechanical pulp that hasn't been bleached. A sodium borohydride bleaching agent is used to make high-finish strength paper. It prints well, absorbs ink well, has a brilliant appearance, and yields well. While hydrogen peroxide bleached paper is 10% brighter than comparable goods, it has higher production costs. https://borates.today/boron-paper-mills/

  • smithjamess221 - Borax is most commonly used to treat wood products such as flooring, furniture, plywood, particleboard, and veneers. In addition to its use in treating wood products, borax is also used as a soil conditioner to improve drainage and prevent salt accumulation. When used as a soil conditioners, borax helps plants grow better and resist disease.
  • jenniferramirez3232 - Calcium carbonate can cause sheet cockle and increase the cost of making paper. Boric acid also reduces the tendency of the paper to curl. Boric acid is not considered a bleaching agent because it does not break down cellulose fibers. Borax is a naturally occurring mineral compound found in many places around the world. It is mined in several locations including: Brazil, China, India, Russia, South Africa, Spain, Turkey, United States, and Zimbabwe.
  • jessicaallen33 - The use of boric acid as an additive in papermaking processes was first reported in 1885. Boric acid is added to the white water system to reduce the amount of alum needed to precipitate calcium carbonate from the white water.

  • Deep subduction occurs when the border of an oceanic tectonic plate (about 100 kilometres thick) collapses and the plate sinks into the Earth's deep mantle. https://borates.today/boron-blue-diamonds/

    Boron and other minerals have therefore been carried from the Earth's superficial layers to depths of almost 700 kilometres. The diamonds were then taken to the surface by kimberlite eruptions. Blue diamonds have yet to become a big part of world culture, save from the mythical curse of the Hope Diamond.

    However, as of 2015, the blue diamond has overtaken the yellow diamond as the most sought-after jewel at auction. Hong Kong businessman Joseph Lau bought a 9.75 carat "Zoe" diamond for his daughter Zoe, whom he named it after, in an unexpected decision.

  • Kimberly_Adams2320 - The first known use of the term "diamonds" was in 1540, in reference to the gemstones found on the island of Madagascar. In 1609, the Dutch East India Company established a trading post on the island and began importing large quantities of diamonds. They called them "diamanten", which means "the gems". From there they spread around the world.

  • Boron nutrition maintains the root membranes and ATPase activity operating properly, boosting phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) absorption in the roots, according to studies. Boron is required for mycorrhizal fungi to colonise roots and aids to root phosphorus absorption. In short-term trials with maize plants, root absorption of P and K under low B supply was restored within one hour after adding boron to the growth medium. Experimental evidence also shows that appropriate boron supply is required to reduce aluminium toxicity in plants cultivated in low pH soils. https://borates.today/nitrogen-boron-fertiliser/

  • The orient print press [OPS] technique is used to make a neodymium-iron-boron magnet. A ball mill is used to grind a neodymium, iron, and boron alloy into a submicron powder. In a high magnetic field, neodymium, iron, or boron-iron alloys are aligned and compacted into basic blocks. https://borates.today/boron-magnets-prize/

    As a result, the substance melts and solidifies. Furthermore, boron, along with neodymium and iron, is used in the manufacture of these magnets. These alloys are commonly referred to as NdFeB and are extremely effective. They can lift tens of thousands of times their own weight. The market for Nd-Fe-B magnets is expected to be worth $20 billion by the middle of this decade.

  • For many years, borax and kernite have been mined underground. It was the largest underground operation in California when the open-pit mine first opened in 1958. It had a total length of more than 200 kilometres of tunnels. Compared to the open-pit operation, the subterranean operations generated fewer specimens. https://borates.today/town-called-boron/

    The majority of the samples were colemanite crystals discovered after the overburden of alluvial debris had been removed from the deposit's top. The borate ore body's changed cap was then disclosed. Colemanite and ulexite were the most common minerals in the modified cap, which typically included crystal pockets. Other minerals discovered were kurnakovite and inderite, tunellite, and hydroboracite.

This method involves applying boron directly to the leaves of the plants using either a spray solution or by soaking them in water containing boric acid. Foliar feeding provides quick results and allows you to target specific areas of the garden. However, it does not provide any long term benefits to the soil as the boron will wash off with rain.

  • jenniferramirez3232 - Nutrition is an important part of life. In fact, it’s one of the most essential aspects of health and wellbeing. Without sufficient nutrients, our bodies cannot function properly. If we are not getting the right amount of nutrients from our meals, then we will lack energy, feel tired and weak, and even experience poor concentration. We also become prone to illnesses like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and other conditions.
  • Campbell_Carol - The first step in preventing malnutrition is to find out whether someone has an actual problem. If they do not have any symptoms, then there is no reason for them to take nutritional supplements. T

  • Boron is taken up as boric acid and may easily pass through the cell wall membrane. The concentration of boron in a cell is regulated by processes that either pump it into or out of the membrane. In a high-boron environment, the plant may prevent boron from entering the xylem and even pump it out of the plant cells. https://borates.today/boron-farm/

    This modulation of the various transporter pathways can assist plants in dealing with nutrient availability that is either insufficient or excessive. These transporter pathways are critical for getting enough boron into plant tissue, especially in low-boron environments. It's tough to forecast where an issue needs to be solved because of the intricacies of availability and uptake.

  • Boron is an essential plant nutrient that is found in all soils but at low levels. It’s not something you’ll commonly find on a list of plant nutrients, but it’s important all the same. Boron is required for plant growth and development, and deficiencies can cause some serious problems. https://borates.today/boron-in-coffee/

    Coffee plants are known to uptake boron from the soil, and research suggests that boron levels in coffee beans may be affected by the amount of boron present in the soil. For this reason, it’s important to make sure your coffee plants have access to adequate levels of boron – especially if you are growing them yourself.

  • andrewjackson6626 - Yes, boron is essential for coffee plants. Boron is important for plant growth and development, and it helps regulate many critical processes including water uptake, energy production, and protein synthesis. A lack of boron can lead to reduced yields and smaller fruits. So it's important to make sure that coffee plants have enough boron to thrive. Adding a boron supplement or fertilizer can help ensure that your coffee plants get the nutrients they need.
  • jenniferramirez3232 - Excess boron can be harmful to the plant, so growers typically don't add more than necessary.
  • jessicaallen33 - Boron is an essential nutrient for plants, and it's often added to fertilizer mixes. It helps the plant to form cell walls, and it's also necessary for the plant to convert nitrogen from the air into a form that the plant can use. Coffee plants seem to benefit from boron levels that are just slightly higher than what is found in most soils.

  • After much investigation and testing with other elements, Davy determined that Borax should be called Boron since "it resembled Boracium so closely." In 1884, the International Union of Chemistry approved his proposal to rename Borax to Boron. It's worth mentioning that it took three years for Boron to be recognised as an element following its discovery. When Boron became extensively employed, Berzelius' research and Davy's findings were not integrated until much later. It's presently utilised for a number of things, including glass manufacturing and cleaning. https://borates.today/origins-boron/

  • Swimming pools are ideal for getting some exercise and socialising with friends and family. Swimming pools, on the other hand, require regular upkeep. Keeping your swimming pool clean may appear to be a difficult undertaking, since pool maintenance is not always simple. https://borates.today/boron-pools/

    The use of boric acid and sodium borates can make swimming pool maintenance more easier than it appears. Boric acid and borates are used in swimming pools and spas as pH buffers to boost the water's ability to resist pH shifts. These applications need regular maintenance by a qualified swimming pool technician who understands how to keep the right amounts of both chemicals in order for the advantages to endure longer.

  • jessicaallen33 - Borate compounds have been used in swimming pools for decades because they are effective at lowering the pH levels of the water. This makes it possible for the water to stay cleaner for an extended period of time. When added to a pool, the borate ion combines with calcium ions to form calcium borate. Calcium borate is insoluble in water, so it settles out of the water column and forms a layer on top of the water. As this layer builds up, it becomes less acidic and helps keep the pool’s water clean longer.

  • Boron must be recognised as a necessary mineral. In many circumstances, boron-based atomic clusters are more common than rare-earth metals. Because boron is the third most prevalent element in the Earth's crust (after oxygen and silicon), it may be found practically anywhere. For business reasons, boron is difficult to extract and mine, but it can be found practically anyplace if you know where to look. Boron has long been used to generate glasses, ceramics, fertilisers, washing powders, detergents, and flame retardants, but it may soon be utilised to create rare-earth metals. https://borates.today/boron-critical-mineral/

For example, complex carbohydrates such as whole grains are generally harder to digest than simple carbohydrates such as sugar. Secondly, the amount of food: The more food you eat, the more work your digestive system has to do to break it down and extract the nutrients. Thirdly, the time of day: Your body's ability to digest and absorb food changes throughout the day. Food is best digested and absorbed early in the morning, before physical activity. And, lastly the state of your health: Illness or infection can affect your body's ability to digest and absorb food.

  • The octet principle is a basic chemistry rule of thumb that asserts main-group elements link in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell. It has the same electrical arrangement as noble gases as a result of this. The octet rule does not apply to many reactive intermediates because they are unstable. Carbenes, borane, and free radicals like the methyl radical (CH3), which has an unpaired electron in a non-bonding orbital on the carbon atom and no electron of opposite spin in the same orbital, fall into this category. Lithium (Li), Beryllium (Be), and Boron (B) are central bonding elements that have less than four valence electrons and hence violate the octet rule.

  • Boron is an important nutrient in crop management and should be applied to the soil on a yearly basis. It benefits plants because it assists in the efficient utilisation of other nutrients and offers a variety of essential plant hormones that regulate growth and development. Several studies have shown the usefulness of boron in improving nutrient absorption all around the world since 1943. Because boron is so abundant in the soil, it's usually just sprinkled on the ground before planting. Higher levels can considerably improve yields after a couple of seasons. https://borates.today/boron-agriculture/

  • Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot formulas or electron dot shapes (LEDs), are diagrams that depict the bonding between atoms and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist within a molecule. Any covalently bonded molecule or coordination compound can have a Lewis structure drawn for it. Gilbert N. Lewis is honoured by the Lewis structure. A Lewis structure is presented for each atom. The chemical symbol also indicates where the molecule is located inside the structure. Lines are drawn between bound atoms (pairs can be substituted for strings). The dots indicate lone pairs of extra electrons that are positioned next to the atoms. In the second phase and afterwards, main component s frequently gain or lose electrons until they reach a (8) electron valence shell electron configuration. Hydrogen (H) can't form bonds with more than two electrons sharing them. Refer this link for more details https://borates.today/boron-lewis-dot-structure/

  • Borax is a natural mineral that has numerous advantages in the soil, including lowering water hardness and increasing moisture retention for better plant growth. Borate-containing fertilisers are also sometimes used as foliar sprays to supplement nitrogen deficiencies in late fall or early spring when air temperatures are too cold for foliage applications but warm enough on the surface of leaves (i.e., 40 degrees Celsius) – though some research suggests that any benefit from this application method may be limited because ammonium ions from urea found in most commercial blends inhibit uptake by leaf cells'. Copper leaching has been successfully prevented by the addition of borate chemicals to compost piles. https://borates.today/boron-micronutrient-plants/

  • Minerals are inorganic compounds that are present in soil and rocks and are necessary for human health. They play an important role in the formation of bone and teeth. They not only keep the body's chemical responses in check, but they also aid in the development of a strong immune system. To maintain a healthy diet, the body need a balanced amount of key minerals. Minerals are often received from our diet. Some are lost or removed during digestion, while others are unlikely to be supplied in sufficient quantities only through diet.

  • Clean fuels are an affordable, practical, and frequently harmful alternative to the fossil fuels we now utilise. They don't release any dangerous chemicals into the air or produce poisonous byproducts in our drinking water. Clean fuel is seen as a long-term solution for energy generation. It's crucial since it conserves natural resources while simultaneously lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Solar power, wind power, hydroelectricity, nuclear fission, and geothermal energy are just a few examples of clean energy sources. https://borates.today/clean-fuels-boron/

  • The process of regulating the pH, which is referred to as alkaline balance, is a crucial aspect in creating a healthy living environment. Boron, a non-metal that when coupled with oxygen generates harmless borates, contributes in the formation of this equilibrium. Boron is a crucial element to keep in mind if you want to maintain your home's pH balanced. It's also beneficial to your health because it's necessary for a range of biological processes, including bone formation, energy metabolism, and cell signalling. According to research, it possesses a variety of qualities that make it a great component of home cleansers, soaps, detergents, and laundry products. It has different properties that make it an excellent component of household cleaners, soaps, detergents, and laundry products.

  • jenniferramirez3232 - Alkalinity is measured by pH scale, where 7 is neutral and less than 7 is acidic. The lower the number, the higher the acidity or alkalinity.
  • smithjamess221 - A weakly acidic solution will be able to neutralize a strong base; whereas a strongly basic solution will have no effect on a weak acid.
  • andrewjackson6626 - Alkalinity refers to the capacity of a solution to neutralize acids.

  • The amount of boron contained in plant foods is influenced by the soil content and the water in which they are cultivated. Boron levels are low in Brazil, Japan, and the majority of the United States. This is caused to heavy rainfall, which causes boron to be washed out of the soil. Contrary to popular belief, boron concentrations are greater in arid places such as California, sections of Argentina, Chile, and Russia, China, and Peru.

  • Because of its electronegativity, oxygen forms stable chemical bonds with practically all elements. An oxide is a binary compound of oxygen with any other element or set of components. It is depicted as an anion, an O2 (molecular) ion. The periodic table divides the elements into numerous types of groupings. Metal oxides are oxygen compounds with metals, while non-metal oxides are oxygen compounds with non-metals. The oxidation state of oxygen is commonly -2, as in carbon dioxide (CO2), which we are all familiar with. https://borates.today/boron-oxide/

  • Kimberly_Adams2320 - Oxidation is a chemical reaction in which oxygen breaks down products, producing atoms with unpaired electrons. 
  • andrewjackson6626 - What does it mean to be oxidized?
  • drLisatorres - The most common metal oxides are those containing aluminum, silicon and titanium. These three elements have very similar properties: they are hard, brittle and easily oxidized. In fact, these three elements are so similar that they often appear together on the periodic table. They also share another property: they tend to form solid solutions with each other.

  • Boron is required for the production of heme. One of the goals in supplementation is to provide high doses without incurring toxicity, which can lead to nausea and vomiting. Long-term clinical trials are difficult due to the increased toxicity tolerances seen with boron supplementation. Borax or boric acid are typically used instead for short-term clinical purposes because they are less toxic than triethanolamine glycerin trisodium salt dihydrate, better tasting, and less expensive. https://borates.today/boron-in-food/

  • George851 - A number of studies suggest that boron’s may play a role in reducing the risk of osteoporosis. One such study found that elderly women who consumed unusually high amounts (87 mg per day) showed increased bone density when compared to those with lower intakes (7 mg per day).
  • davidgarcia27 - Boron is an element in the same group as calcium and magnesium and seems to be involved in healthy bone growth and healthy prostate function. Boron also seems to be important for cardiovascular health, regulation of blood sugar levels, prevention of arthritis, and some cancers.
  • Anderson_Mark2248 - Boron is a trace mineral that plays a key role in calcium retention. If you have calcium, magnesium, and boron deficiencies, then you're highly susceptible to conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis.

  • There are a few benefits to increasing the levels of Boron in your reef tank. First, Borates can improve the hardiness and resistance of corals by retarding diatom growth which may have potentially negative effects on coral tissues. Diatoms produce a kind of waste called siliceous opal which builds up over time and will make a reef tank appear cloudy. It can also be used as a pH adjuster for systems with issues maintaining stable water chemistry. https://borates.today/boron-health-coral-reefs/

  • jessicaallen33 - Boron is a mineral that is an important plant element and it also plays a role in protein synthesis. It's well known for facilitating the movement of calcium, magnesium, and other minerals to keep your fish healthy and your aquarium calcium balanced. It can also help reduce metal toxicity in fish tanks by binding to heavy metals such as copper, lead, and zinc before they get absorbed via the gills(so when you do choose to give your fish medicines like liquids, Borax will uptake any excess). These factors tend to make borax one of the most critical supplements for individuals who like keeping saltwater reef tanks or planted freshwater tanks or even freshwater shrimp setups.
  • Campbell_Carol - Boron's main function in the body is basically to act as a regulating agent for other compounds like hormones, proteins; hence it plays important roles in vascularization (the ability for blood vessels to grow), nerve conduction (the transmission of impulses through nerves), cell membrane fluidity (proteins on membranes can change their shapes more quickly.
  • davidgarcia27 - Boron is mainly created by the decomposition of organic matter in the sea. These include dead animals, leaves, and feces which all contain some boron. For that reason, reef tanks started to notice that water changes were no longer replenishing their boron levels because it had already been drawn out by all of these natural processes happening while turning dirt into the rock for instance.

  • Corrosion is the wearing away of material due to prolonged exposure to some form of environmental condition such as moisture. The corrosive environment can be anything from acid rain and salt spray on metal to highly aggressive organic chemicals on polymers such as PVC or neoprene.

    Coating metals with boron is a means of counteracting the effects of corrosion by shielding them from an environment that causes it. It was first approved commercially for this purpose in 1967 and is now used routinely on many different types and sizes of steel and concrete structures. https://borates.today/boron-nickel-anti-corrosion/

  • Anderson_Mark2248 - Many countries advocate for boron-coating due to its environmental friendliness towards people and nature - more than 12% of the world's cars are boron-coated already.
  • George851 - Boron is an element found in some foods and water. The surface of some metals occasionally undergoes corrosion, which forms toxic chemicals harmful to the environment. Historically, lead was used to coat these surfaces, but it's environmentally toxic.
  • jessicaallen33 - Boron is an element that is mined from the earth and used chemically in many ways, including as a structural steel stabilizer. In its natural form, boron resists corrosion from salty or wet conditions. Chemical engineering has been able to apply this same naturally-resisting property onto another material by polishing tiny patches of it down to about an inch square and applying them to the desired location with adhesive glue. This thin surface layer of boron can then protect surfaces for years without reapplication or maintenance on account of high durability.

  • Natural resources, whether in the form of flora and fauna or minerals and gas, help the inhabitants of a country. Only those who know how to appropriately and sustainably employ such resources will prosper. Mining is the most important factor in every economy's wealth growth. Turkey, which is located in the Mediterranean, is lucky to have considerable mineral deposits such as boron, marble, trona, chromium, and other industrial raw materials, all of which have enormous mining and commercial potential. https://borates.today/boron-eti-maden/

  • Mining companies who were early adopters of climate change mitigation had a 20% greater valuation than those in the lowest quintile, according to the Boston Consulting Group. Rio Tinto's efforts to decarbonize operations, identify assets most vulnerable to climate change, and plan for demand shifts, according to a case study, are all commercially motivated. https://borates.today/rio-tinto-decarboinzation/
