APPLICATIONS |
Borax is used in the process of making boric acid, but there is a tremendous chemical difference between the two. Borax is a naturally occurring mineral, though of course, that doesn’t make it inert or safe either. Arsenic is a naturally occurring metalloid but it isn’t safe for human use. Natural doesn’t always mean safe. At the same time, the studies used to back up the safety (or danger) of borax often use boric acid or are ambiguous about which was used. |
