Boron-based flame retardant. Non-halogen, non-phosphorus. A water-soluble flame retardant with high effectiveness on cellulose. Also has wood preservation and anti-termite properties.
This is a high-concentration aqueous solution of sodium polyborate, primarily made from boric acid. Through a special manufacturing process, boric acid, which previously did not dissolve in water, is now dissolved at a high concentration. It contains no organic solvents and is composed solely of sodium polyborate and water. It has a high flame retardant effect on cellulose and was originally developed as a flame retardant solution for the production of non-combustible wood. In recent years, evaluations have begun for various materials, not only cellulose-based materials but also including resins. Additionally, it demonstrates excellent effectiveness in wood preservation and termite prevention, and due to its extremely low toxicity, it is significantly easier to handle compared to existing termite agents.

Applications/Examples of results
We are a manufacturer of water-based boron compound flame retardants and wood preservatives for pest control, originating from a disaster recovery NPO. Our products are extremely safe and highly effective on materials made from pulp, such as paper and cardboard. Additionally, they can impart preservative and pest control properties to wood. As a pest control agent, our product demonstrates high effectiveness against the American wood-boring termite, which traditional products have failed to address. Our flame retardants are inorganic, more effective than conventional products, and characterized by their extremely low toxicity and ease of handling. Our water-based boron compound flame retardants and wood preservatives are particularly effective on cellulose-based materials. They can provide a certain level of flame resistance when applied to wooden components of historical buildings, railway wood, and ship interiors. Furthermore, as a pest control agent, our inorganic product is highly safe and offers semi-permanent effectiveness, leading to an increasing number of cases where it is standardly adopted by local house builders. Future applications are expected to include flame retardation for building materials, paper, cardboard, cellulose nanofibers (CNF), water-based paints, and various other resins. 【Track Record of Transactions and Development with Major Companies】 We have ongoing transactions with major paper manufacturers, major railway companies, major trading companies, and major building material manufacturers.
