Buy Potassium Nitrate, Polyethylene, Potassium Iodide, Potassium Perchlorate, Polyvinyl Chloride, Potassium Chlorate
Unless otherwise noted, all chemicals come packed in a twist-tied plastic bag in a sealed, reusable plastic tub. Some, very light-weight, high-volume chemicals (like air float charcoal, lampblack, and Cab-O-Sil) are packed in boxes instead of tubs. Each container is labeled and contains a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for that chemical. The chemicals we supply are generally technical grade, sometimes better. Technical grade is generally defined as "chemicals of reasonable purity".

Potassium Perchlorate
[KClO4] Fine, white powder
Oxidizer. 5 pound minimum order.
Potassium perchlorate until recently was used to treat hyperthyroidism resulting from Grave's disease, and is still used diagnostically to test thyroid hormone production in some clinical settings. In addition, potassium perchlorate is used in protective breathing equipment on Air National Guard (ANG) aircraft for use in the event of depressurization, and in naval emergency escape breathing devices. Other uses of perchlorate salts include in nuclear reactors and electronic tubes, as additives in lubricating oils, in solid fuels in rockets and missiles, road flares, air-bag inflation systems, in tanning and finishing leather, as a fixer for fabrics and dyes, and in electoplating, in nuclear reactors, electronic tubes, aluminum refining, rubber manufacture, and production of paints and enamels. Commonly used in fertilizers, it’s also used for analytical chemistry, in gypsum cements, glass and aluminum manufacture.
One area of natural occurrence of potassium perchlorate is in potassium nitrate from Chile (Chile saltpeter), which may be used in chemical fertilizers originating from Chile.
