Potassium chlorate is a chemical compound with the molecular formula KClO3. It is a white crystalline powder that is commonly used as an oxidizing agent in various industrial processes, as well as in the production of fireworks, matches, and explosives. When heated or subjected to shock, it releases oxygen and can rapidly increase the temperature of its surroundings, making it a potentially dangerous substance if handled improperly.
Description
Potassium chlorate
- Pyrotechnics: Potassium chlorate is commonly used as an oxidizer in the production of fireworks, as it provides the necessary oxygen to fuel the combustion reactions that produce the bright colors and effects.
- Matches: The compound is also used in the manufacture of matches, as it provides the necessary oxygen to ignite the combustible material on the match head.
- Explosives: Potassium chlorate can also be used as an ingredient in the production of explosives, such as black powder, which is a mixture of potassium chlorate, charcoal, and sulfur.
- Oxygen generation: Due to its ability to release oxygen when heated or subjected to shock, potassium chlorate is used in some chemical oxygen generators, which provide a source of breathable oxygen in emergency situations.
- Agriculture: In agriculture, potassium chlorate can be used as a herbicide, as it inhibits the growth of unwanted plants and weeds. However, its use as a herbicide is restricted in some countries due to its potential environmental and health risks.

Urea 50 kg
Urea is an organic compound with the chemical formula CO(NH2)2. It is a crystalline substance that is highly soluble in water. Urea is produced naturally in the bodies of mammals as a byproduct of protein metabolism and is excreted in urine. It is also synthetically produced on a large scale for various industrial applications.
In simple terms, urea is a nitrogenous compound that contains two amine groups (-NH2) attached to a carbonyl group (C=O). It plays a crucial role in the nitrogen cycle, serving as a primary vehicle for the excretion of nitrogenous waste in mammals. Urea is commonly used as a fertilizer in agriculture due to its high nitrogen content, and it is also utilized in the production of plastics, resins, adhesives, and various other industrial applications.
