EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of boron, a versatile metalloid element with major industrial applications. Against a pristine white background, the metallic specimen stands out in all its glory. The studio shot showcases the beauty and complexity of this chemical element. Boron compounds play a crucial role in various industries, such as sodium perborate bleaches and fibreglass insulation. In fact, the borax component found in fibreglass insulation is derived from hydrated sodium borate - the main source of boric acid. This acid is widely used as a cleaning product due to its exceptional properties. The carefully arranged jar containing this precious sample evokes curiosity about its mineralogy and elemental composition. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary objects can hold immense scientific value. Through this still life photograph, Science Photo Library invites us to appreciate the wonders of chemistry and explore the fascinating world of elements. The image not only highlights the significance of boron but also reminds us that science extends far beyond commercial use. With exquisite attention to detail, this print celebrates both artistry and scientific exploration while showcasing an essential building block of our modern world – boron.
