PY - 2018 T2 - Poisoning & Drug Overdose, 7e AB - Potassium chlorate is a component of some match heads, barium chlorate (see also Barium) is used in the manufacture of fireworks and explosives, sodium chlorate is still a major ingredient in some weed killers used in commercial agriculture, and other chlorate salts are used in dye production. Safer and more effective compounds have replaced chlorate in toothpaste and antiseptic mouthwashes.
