Boric acid is widely utilized in research focused on various practical applications:
- Fertilizers: It serves as a micronutrient in agriculture, promoting healthy plant growth by aiding in the development of flowers and fruits.
- Antiseptics: In medicine, boric acid is used in diluted solutions for its antifungal and antibacterial properties, making it effective for treating minor cuts and infections.
- Pest Control: It acts as an insecticide, particularly against cockroaches and termites, providing a safer alternative to harsher chemicals.
- pH Buffering: In laboratories, it is used to maintain stable pH levels in various chemical reactions, enhancing the accuracy of experimental results.
- Glass and Ceramics: Boric acid is a key component in the production of glass and ceramics, improving thermal and chemical resistance, which is essential for high-performance materials.
