Characteristics 

Boron is used as a cleaning and bleaching agent. It controls alkalinity of soaps and synthetic detergents; balances active oxygen; softens water; lowers the time and heat of the washing; and prevents the corrosion of the metal/machine. Borates are also widely used in personal care products and household or industrial cleaners for various purposes like abrasion, germicide and bleaching. Borax has also been used for flea control. The choice of boron product will depend on the other ingredients and the composition, quality and type of the final product. Borax Decahydrate, Borax Pentahydrate, Boric Acid and Anhydrous Borax can be used for cleaning and laundering formulations.

For pool applications, it is recommended to use 20 ounces of Borax for every 5,000 gallons of water in your pool. This is just an estimate as different chemical factors require a different amount for your pool. Test your pH Levels to ensure they are in range, and use an online pool calculator to find your exact amount.
