Calcium metaborate(Cat No.:M056394), typically presented as a white powder with the chemical formula Ca(BO2)2, is known for its utility in industrial applications. This inorganic compound acts as a flame retardant and smoke suppressant in polymers and coatings, contributing to safer material formulations. It also serves as a corrosion inhibitor, especially useful in antifreeze compositions and protective coatings. In the ceramics industry, calcium metaborate is used as a flux to lower the melting point of glazes. Additionally, it finds use in the production of glass and as a source of boron in fertilizers.
