General Description

FC BORIC ACID is a refined cosmetic-grade compound widely used in personal care formulations for its antiseptic, buffering, and pH-stabilizing properties. Chemically known as H₃BO₃, it appears as a white, crystalline powder that dissolves easily in water. Due to its mild antimicrobial and antifungal characteristics, FC BORIC ACID helps preserve cosmetic formulations and maintain product stability. It is commonly included in skincare, haircare, and hygiene products to enhance formulation safety, regulate pH, and improve the overall efficacy of other active ingredients.

Uses in the Cosmetic Industry

FC BORIC ACID serves multiple functions across a wide range of beauty and personal care applications. Typical uses include:

  • Skin Care Products: Acts as a buffering agent in creams, lotions, and toners to maintain an optimal pH level and soothe minor skin irritation.
  • Eye & Facial Preparations: Used in controlled concentrations in some eye washes and facial cleansers for its mild cleansing and antiseptic effects.
  • Hair Care Products: Helps balance scalp pH and prevent microbial buildup in shampoos and conditioners.
  • Foot & Body Powders: Provides antifungal and deodorizing benefits, making it effective in body and foot care products.
  • Preservative Systems: Enhances product longevity when combined with other antimicrobial agents, improving overall formulation stability.
    Manufacturers purchase FC BORIC ACID in bulk for its versatility, cost-effectiveness, and multifunctional role in maintaining product quality and safety.

Hazards

While FC BORIC ACID is effective and safe when used within regulated limits, caution is required during handling and formulation:

  • Skin Irritation: May cause mild irritation with prolonged or high-concentration exposure; should be used within recommended cosmetic limits.
  • Eye Irritation: Direct contact with the eyes can cause discomfort; avoid use in formulations intended for direct ocular application unless specifically approved.
  • Inhalation Risk: Fine powder form can irritate the respiratory tract; handle in a well-ventilated area or use appropriate protective equipment.
  • Ingestion: Toxic if swallowed in significant quantities; intended strictly for external cosmetic use.
  • Regulatory Note: Must be used according to regional cosmetic safety regulations, as excessive concentrations may be restricted in certain product types.

Storage & Stability

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from moisture and incompatible materials.
  • Stability: Chemically stable under normal storage conditions with excellent shelf life when properly sealed.

FC BORIC ACID is available for bulk and wholesale supply to cosmetic manufacturers seeking a reliable buffering and antimicrobial ingredient for safe, stable, and high-performance formulations.

CAS Number: 10043-35-3

INCI: Boric Acid

Composition:FC BORIC ACID consists primarily of boric acid (H₃BO₃), a weak inorganic acid containing boron, hydrogen, and oxygen. It is valued for its buffering, antiseptic, and pH-regulating properties in cosmetic and industrial applications.

THE STORY OF FC BORIC ACID

FC Boric Acid: The Classic pH Regulator & Antimicrobial Aid

FC Boric Acid (H₃BO₃) is a traditional cosmetic and pharmaceutical raw material used forpH regulation, buffering, odor control, and mild antimicrobial support. It has long been used in eye washes, foot powders, skin lotions, bath products, and cleansing formulations where pH balance and preservative-boosting are required.

Refined from Boron Minerals for High-Purity Cosmetic Use

FC Boric Acid is produced by refining naturally occurring borate minerals(such as borax or kernite), followed by controlled crystallization to achieve cosmetic-grade purity. TRCkem supplies fine, low-impurity boric acid with consistent pH control properties suited for topical and personal-care formulations.

Buffer. Deodorize. Support Stability.

Functional benefits in formulations:
✅ Helps stabilize pH in mildly acidic or neutral products
✅ Acts as a deodorizing and odor-control agent
✅ Provides mild antifungal and antibacterial support in powders and washes
✅ Improves preservative efficacy in water-based systems

Commonly found in: antiseptic powders, bath salts, foot care, eyewash solutions, skin lotions, barrier creams, and medicated cleansers.
