Product details

Boric acid, is a chemical compound with the formula H3BO3. Boric acid occurs naturally in certain minerals and volcanic waters, but it can also be produced synthetically. Here are some key points about boric acid: Properties: Boric acid appears as a white crystalline powder or as colorless crystals. It has a slightly acidic taste and is soluble in water. When heated, it dehydrates and forms metaboric acid. It is mildly toxic if ingested or inhaled and can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. 
As with any chemical compound, it's advisable to handle boric acid with care, following proper safety guidelines and instructions provided by the manufacturer. If you have specific concerns or questions about boric acid, it is recommended to consult with a professional, such as a chemist or a toxicologist.
