Sodium tetrahydroxyborate is a salt (ionic compound) with chemical formula NaH4BO4 or Na+[B(OH)4]−. It is one of several sodium borates. At room temperature it is a colorless crystalline solid.
The element ratio corresponds to the oxide mixture Na2O·B2O3·4H2O, but the structure of the solid is quite different from that suggested by this formula.
