Boroguard
 

Boroguard is a derivative of zinc borate, a boron-based fungicide and fire retardant with a chemical composition of ZnOB2O3H2O. It is used in a variety of industries such as wood, paper and pulp, plastics, polymers, rubber, textiles and ceramics for its preservative and flame retardant properties. Boroguard performs optimally as a biocide (fungicide and preservative) and corrosive inhibitor especially for use in coatings. It is used in conjunction with antimony oxide in halogen-containing systems while in halogen-free systems it is used with alumina trihydrate, magnesium hydroxide or red phosphorus. At Royce (www.royceintl.com), boroguard is available in three major products: FireChoke ZB, CeramicGuard-ZB and Fiberguard. All these products are EPA approved and are manufactured in one of Royce's five production facilities that adhere to the strictest environmental regulations.

Boroguard prevents the deleterious effects of termites, corrosive insects and molds as well as diffuses water of hydration to suppress smoke and prevent fire. It can be used in polymer compounds and plastics such as PVC, polyolefins, polyamides, elastomers and epoxy resins, in textiles such as canvases and cotton fabrics, to treat wood, lumber and hardwood plywood especially plastic-wood deck boards and as an essential ingredient in ceramic and enamel glazes to affix them and enhance their durability and luster.
