CobraSnakeNecktie Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 depends on what grade you are looking for. You can get Pharmaceutical/laboratory grade on Suthep Road at a little supply store. its the one near the hospital on Suthep and Sirimangkhlachan Rd intersection. The shop is on the other side of the south side of Suthep and has a lot of glass ware for chemistry. If your after Borax with more impurities for pest control, agriculture, cleaning etc. There is another shop on the same side of Suthep road but another few hundred meters toward the university. This shop has a lot a bags of chemicals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maejo Man Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Depending on how much you need, your local manufacturing jeweler will have it as they still use it as flux. Failing that, the chemical supply shop on Suthep rd. opposite the faculty of medicine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naboo Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 The shop is on the other side of the south side of Suthep and has a lot of glass ware for chemistry. Is that the north side then? Serious question, need to get hold of some potassium permanganate, they may have some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 It's also used to treat (preserve) bamboo to make it last a lot longer. I would imagine that's different grade/quantities again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't have it they can usually order it and get it delivered from BKK in a few days. They can get laboratory grade H202 (Hydrogen Peroxide) by order also.

stolidfeline Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 (edited) Anyone know the Thai name for it (Borax) ? Edited June 5, 2010 by stolidfeline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraSnakeNecktie Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 They know it as Borax which is technically Sodium Tetraborate. The medical and chemical industries use the ISO designations. ISO is International Standards Organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
