SatanicSam Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 So Pva and borax form a bond, when you convert the borax to boric acid it no longer has that bond. If you add sodium bicarbonate than there is the same or a very similar bond almost like if the boric acid got turned back into borax. So whats the reaction with boric acid and sodium bicarbonate?

Strange Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Borax is sodium borate so I would assume that mixing sodium bicarbonate and boric acid would give you sodium borate = borax (plus CO2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatanicSam Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) I think that would happen if you added heat since "Sodium Borate + Heat + Sodium Bicarbonate" Reacts only with heat although it would make sence but you could be wrong, If anyone knows for sure please reply.

chenbeier Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Heat will make it, but also if you dissolve both components in water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
