Manufacturing Process
Borax, or sodium tetraborate decahydrate, can be made into boric acid by reacting it with a mineral acid, like hydrochloric acid:
Na2B4O7·10H2O + 2 HCl → 4 B(OH)3 + 2 NaCl + 5 H2O
It is also produced as a byproduct of diborane and boron trihalides being hydrolyzed:
B2H6 + 6 H2O → 2 B(OH)3 + 6 H2
BX3 + 3 H2O → B(OH)3 + 3 HX (X = Cl, Br, I)
