Why did they add boron to water to dump on the nuclear reactor?

Boron is a good absorber of neutrons and would be useful in preventing criticality, if the fuel had melted and was possibly going to form a critical mass. I don't know how likely this was, but it seems more of a precaution than a real necessity, at present anyway.

How is a nuclear power plant kept cool?
By its cooling system, which consists of a series of coolant loops connected by heat exchangers. Some of the coolants that have been used in these loops have been: water, liquid metals, gasses, the reactor's fuel itself (in molten salt or slurry fueled reactors), etc. depending on the reactor's design. One or more loops is used to make steam to turn turbines to generate electricity. The final loop is open to the environment to dump the unusable waste heat either into the air or a river.
