Abstract(s)

ABSTRACT: The authors regret that an error in the unit of the global output of boron occurred: the correct value is 4.13 million tons per year of borates, corresponding to 2.29 million tons B2O3 in 2018. Thus, the presumable consumption of borates by the ceramic industry (around 250,000 tons per year, B2O3 content) corresponds to 11 ± 1% of the global output of borates. In comparison, estimates from the mining industry (Orocobre 2019 Annual Report; EtiMaden 2022 Boron Report) place the borate demand for the production of ceramic frits at a share of 14%, corresponding to approximately 320,000 tons per year (B2O3 content).
