· JVASP-135785· Na2BO2

Sodium tetraborate (Na2BO2) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the borate family, commonly derived from or related to borax minerals. It functions as a glass-forming and flux material, valued for its ability to lower melting temperatures and improve workability in ceramic and glass systems. This compound is widely employed in glass manufacturing, glazes, enamels, and refractory applications, where it enhances flow properties and thermal stability; engineers select it over alternative fluxes when cost-effectiveness and broad compatibility with silicate systems are priorities.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
