A novel approach for the production of zinc borate (4ZnO·B2O3·H2O) using a single-step hydrothermal method

Zinc borate having the formula of 4ZnO·B2O3·H2O has been used as a fire retardant for polymers requiring high processing temperatures since it has a high dehydration temperature (around 415°C). The effects of reaction time, reaction temperature were investigated on the heterogeneous reaction between...
