The chemical formula for boron oxide is B2O3
Boron oxide is used as a fluxing agent in the production of glass. For more see related links below.
Boron hexahydride
Boron dioxide would have formula BO2, with a total of three atoms, BUT this is NOT a possible compound.B2O3, with 5 atoms, is called boron trioxide (or diboron trioxide, boron oxide, boron sesquioxide, boric oxide alternatively).
3h2o + b2o3= 2h3bo3

As per my knowledge Boric acid dissociates into Boron oxide by escape of water molecules from boric acid near to 300 deg centrigrade; hence bonding may be weakened. But in case of Boron oxide use, there is no dissociation of Boron oxide.

There are a couple derivatives of elements that are used in borosilicate glass. They are boron oxide and silicon dioxide.

Boron oxide, B2O3, is acidic. It reacts slowly with water to form boric acid. When fused, (molten) it reacts readily with metal oxides to form borates.
