Borates; peroxoborates (perborates)

In plain English

This category covers borates and peroxoborates, which are compounds related to inorganic chemicals. The specific types of borates are separated based on whether they are anhydrous disodium tetraborate or other forms of that substance. Additionally, the list includes borates not specified elsewhere in this section as well as peroxoborates themselves.
