About sodium chlorate
Chemical formula: NaClO3
Sodium chlorate is crucial to environmentally compatible pulp bleaching as the chemical is the essential ingredient in the generation of chlorine dioxide, which, in turn, is the main component in ECF (Elemental Chlorine-Free) bleaching.
Up to 95 percent of all sodium chlorate produced worldwide goes into the pulp and paper industry. With growing environmental concerns, sodium chlorate, as a key ingredient for making chlorine dioxide, is in even greater demand by the industry.
