Sodium chlorate
Properties：
Sodium chlorate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NaClO3. It is a white crystalline powder that is readily soluble in water. It is hygroscopic. It decomposes above 300 °C to release oxygen and leaves sodium chloride. Several hundred million tons are produced annually, mainly for applications in bleaching pulp to produce high brightness paper.
Specifications:
| ITEMS | STANDARD |
| Purity-NaClO3 | ≥99.0% |
| Moisture | ≤0.1% |
| water insolubles | ≤0.01% |
| Chloride (based on Cl) | ≤0.15% |
| Sulfate (based on SO4) | ≤0.10% |
| Chromate (based on CrO4) | ≤0.01% |
| Iron (Fe) | ≤0.05% |
Application：
The main commercial use for sodium chlorate is for making chlorine dioxide (ClO2). The largest application of ClO2, which accounts for about 95% of the use of chlorate, is in bleaching of pulp. All other, less important chlorates are derived from sodium chlorate, usually by salt metathesis with the corresponding chloride. All perchlorate compounds are produced industrially by the oxidation of solutions of sodium chlorate by electrolysis.
