Core technological expertise in boron-based compounds

BoroChem has unique know-how and technological expertise in the engineering and synthesis of boron-based compounds.
In our production process, we employ an innovating cryoboration technique, using temperatures from -40°C down to – 100°C, enabling to:
better control reaction speed
enhance specificity
reduce unwanted side products
