A highly concentrated source of boric oxide for glazes. Anhydrous borax is made by burning or fusing hydrated borax. It thus contains little or no water of crystallization (conversation ratio of .53 compared to hydrated decahydrate borax) and does not rehydrate under normal storage conditions. Anhydrous borax is water soluble, but considerably less so than raw borax (in aqueous solution it can provide slow release of boron).
A common type of organic acid anhydride is a carboxylic anhydride, where the parent acid is a carboxylic acid, the formula of the anhydride being (RC(O)) 2 O. Symmetrical acid anhydrides of this type are named by replacing the word acid in the name of the parent carboxylic acid by the word anhydride.ne of the acyl groups of an acid anhydride can be derived from an inorganic acid such as phosphoric acid. The mixed anhydride 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is an intermediate in the formation of ATP via glycolysis, is the mixed anhydride between 3-phosphoglyceric acid and phosphoric acid.
