Borax, also known as sodium borate, is a versatile substance used in different applications. It is a white powder that consists of crystals and is extracted from the minerals Borax and Kerniet.

One of the most common applications of Borax is as a cleaning agent. It has excellent cleaning properties and can be used to remove stains and dirt from different surfaces such as clothing, carpets and kitchen utensils. Borax can also be used as a natural alternative to conventional cleaning products, because it does not contain harmful chemicals.

In addition, Borax is often used as a preservative. It can be added to cosmetic products, such as creams and lotions, to extend the shelf life and to prevent bacterial growth. Borax also has mold -resistant properties, making it an effective means to combat fungal growth in the house.

Although Borax has many advantages, it is important to follow safety instructions when using them. Firstly, Borax must be kept out of the reach of children, because it can be toxic when intake. It is also important not to breathe Borax because it can cause respiratory irritation. When handling Borax it is advisable to wear gloves and safety glasses to prevent contact with the skin and eyes.
