This book reviews boron properties and its applications including various aspects of the physiological role of boron in plants;  the importance of boron for living organisms, boron toxicity in these organisms, the microbial diversity in environments containing boron, the applications of boron and boron-containing compounds; the bioremediation of boron contaminated sites by bacteria related to the accumulation of boron; the reactive features of boron and the formation of special structures before examining the fundamental chemistry behind boron-organo-silicone oxide polymers along with the effects of additives during synthesis and boron-silica compounds with and without magnetic content. Based on the resulting properties, interesting potential applications are discussed.
