BORAX Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Borax, also known as sodium borate, is a white crystalline compound with the chemical formula Na2B4O7·10H2O. It is used as a cleaning agent, in the manufacture of glass and ceramics, and as a flux in metalworking. Borax is relatively non-toxic but can cause skin and eye irritation upon contact. Proper handling and storage are essential to ensure safety.
