[edit] Impurity levels

One gram seems an awful lot of chlorate to test for detonation! One-tenth of a gram (roughly the point of a spatula) seems safer: this is still enough to seem detonation, but not sufficient for the explosion to be too harmful... Physchim62 (talk) 09:46, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Catalyst vs. Oxidizer

I changed oxidizer to catalyst when describing the role of manganese dioxide in the decomposition of potassium chlorate. --71.227.190.111 22:43, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welding

Perhaps some information shlould be added in regards to potassium chlorate's welding applications. Solidox, etc.
