Best Answer

Boron was discovered by Joseph-Louis Gay-Lussac and Louis-Jaques Thénard, French chemists, and independently by Sir Humphry Davy, an English chemist, in 1808. They all isolated boron by combining boric acid (H3BO3) with potassium. It was incompletely refined and was not recognized as an element. It remained for the Swedish chemist Jöns Jakob Berzelius to actually identify boron as an element, which he did in 1824.
