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.

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 the bleaching of pulp. All perchlorate compounds are produced industrially by the oxidation of solutions of sodium chlorate by electrolysis. 

Sodium chlorate is used as a non-selective herbicide. It is considered phytotoxic to all green plant parts. It can also kill through root absorption.

Sodium chlorate may be used to control a variety of plants including morning glory, Canada thistle, johnsongrass, bamboo, Ragwort, and St John's wort. The herbicide is mainly used on non-cropland for spot treatment and for total vegetation control on areas including roadsides, fence ways, and ditches. Sodium chlorate is also used as a defoliant and desiccant for:

Cotton
Safflower
Corn
Flax
Peppers
Soybeans
Grain sorghum
Southern peas
Dry beans
Rice
Sunflowers

If used in combination with atrazine, it increases the persistence of the effect. If used in combination with 2,4-D, performance is improved. Sodium chlorate has a soil sterilant effect. Mixing with other herbicides in an aqueous solution is possible to some extent, so long as they are not susceptible to oxidation.

Uses of Sodium Chlorate – NaClO3

It is a commodity chemical that has only one single major use as bleaching pulp in the production of paper.

Used in the Solvay process uses sodium chlorate and sulfuric acid, with methanol as the reducing agent.

Used as an oxidizing agent in the dye-stuffs industry and an oxidizing and bleaching agent.

Finds additional use in the explosives, match, and pharmaceutical industries.
