Abstract
Boron compounds such as alkali metal or alkaline earth metal borates capable of forming hydrates or higher hydrates may be formed into shaped bodies by forming into a paste with water and allowing the water to be bound to form a solid shaped body. The bodies are useful as inserts into preformed cavities in structures, e.g. of wood, liable to insect, fungal or other infestation by virtue of the slow dissolution of the insert and the toxicity to such organisms of the boron compounds.
