Borates in boron trifluoride (BF₃) applications
Borates play a critical role in the production and application of boron trifluoride (BF₃)—which is derived primarily from boric acid or boric oxide.

U.S. Borax, part of Rio Tinto, is a global leader in the supply and science of borates—naturally-occurring minerals containing boron and other elements. We are 1,000 people serving our customers with more than 1,200 delivery locations globally. We supply around 30% of the world’s need for refined borates from our world-class mine in Boron, California, about 100 miles northeast of Los Angeles.
