· B4 O10 Na8

B₄O₁₀Na₈ is an inorganic ceramic compound based on the borate system, specifically a sodium borate glass or crystalline phase. This material belongs to the family of boron oxide ceramics, which are valued in glass technology and specialized ceramic applications. Sodium borates are primarily used in glass manufacturing (borosilicate and soda-lime-borate glasses), thermal insulation, and as fluxing agents in metallurgical processes. This compound is notable for its role in lowering melting temperatures and improving thermal shock resistance compared to traditional silicate ceramics, making it particularly relevant where processing efficiency or thermal cycling durability is critical.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
