In mathematics, a Boolean ring R is a ring for which x = x for all x in R, that is, a ring that consists only of idempotent elements. An example is the ring of integers modulo 2.

Every Boolean ring gives rise to a Boolean algebra, with ring multiplication corresponding to conjunction or meet ∧, and ring addition to exclusive disjunction or symmetric difference. Boolean rings are named after the founder of Boolean algebra, George Boole.
