Etibor 68 or Anhydrous Borax is a white, odorless product available in crystalline granular form. It is a hard glassy material produced by dehydrating Borax. By nature Anhydrous Borax is far less hygroscopic than Borax and does not absorb moisture under ordinary storage conditions. It is mildly soluble in water, which is useful to applications where a slow release is desired in wet or moist conditions.
