Potassium chlorate (KClO₃) is a strong oxidizing agent.
It is mainly used:
- Match heads and safety matches
- Fireworks, flares, and pyrotechnics (to produce bright flames)
- Herbicides and agricultural applications
- Oxygen generation in chemical oxygen generators
- Manufacture of dyes, inks, and other chemicals
