Wikipedia definition
2. BorateBorates are the name for a large number of boron-containing oxoanions. The term "borates" may also more loosely refer to chemical compounds which contain borate anions. The simplest borate anion, BO3, has a trigonal planar structure and is analogous to the carbonate anion CO3, with which it is isoelectronic. Larger borates are composed of trigonal planar BO3 or tetrahedral BO4 structural units, joined together via shared oxygen atoms and may be cyclic or linear in structure.
