ammonium pentaborate octahydrate

Description:
Ammonium pentaborate octahydrate, with the CAS number 12007-89-5, is an inorganic compound characterized by its crystalline structure and hydrophilic nature due to the presence of water molecules in its octahydrate form. It consists of ammonium ions and pentaborate anions, which contribute to its unique properties. This compound is typically white or colorless and is soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, including as a flame retardant and in the production of boron-containing materials. The presence of boron enhances its effectiveness in certain chemical processes, particularly in agriculture as a micronutrient for plants. Additionally, ammonium pentaborate octahydrate exhibits thermal stability, although it may decompose upon prolonged heating. Its hygroscopic nature allows it to absorb moisture from the environment, which can affect its handling and storage. Overall, this compound is valued for its multifunctional properties in both industrial and agricultural contexts.
