The Eastern subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) (Blattodea: Rhinotermitidae), is a significant pest, causing extensive damage to structures that amount to substantial economic losses. Boric acid is widely used for wood preservation due to its stability and broad-spectrum insecticidal...
Wood was treated with a low molecular-weight silicic acid: boric acid agent and examined for increased resistance to termites and combustion. Wood treated with silicic acid only exhibited increased termite resistance, but not to the marked extent observed after treatment with a mixture of silicic ...
Several charts are presented which provide data on export and import market for natural boric acid containing up to 85 percent H3BO3 and natural borates and concentrates excluding natural brine borates in the U.S. in 2009 which include one on the estimates of the total level of exports and ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a termite pest control agent where natural colemanite ore and boric acid compound are strongly bounded, capable of holding termite preventive performance for long time without using an insecticidal component of an organic compound, and a termite prevention fabric ...
EMBROCATION FOR CONTROLLING TERMITE AND COCKROACH, USING BORIC ACIDPURPOSE:To obtain an embrocation for controlling termites and cockroaches, suppressing elution of boric acid, having improved durability of effects, by blending boric acid with compounded polyemulsion comprising carboxyl modified styrene ...
crenata wood specimens has been enhanced by application of linseed oil alone but not enough to reduce termite's attack of Coptotermes formosanus . Treating wood with a 1.0% w/w boric acid solution prior to oil treatment protects C. japonica from termite and fungi degradations. Efficiency ...

The seed oils also improved wood resistance against termites, while the wood resistance against fungi significantly improved from the combination of boric acid and seed oil treatment. The lowest weight loss in termite and fungal tests occurred with the combination of boric acid and candlenut oil ...
