Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

- Justification for type of information:
- The report of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2008) assesses:
"In water, perchlorates will rapidly dissolve and completely dissociate into the perchlorate anion and the corresponding cation (e.g., for potassium perchlorate, the corresponding cation would be K+). The cations of the perchlorates listed in Table 4-1, magnesium, potassium, ammonium, sodium, and lithium, are ubiquitous in the environment. Given that perchlorates completely dissociate at environmentally significant concentrations, their cations are, for all practical purposes, spectators in the aqueous fate of perchlorates. Therefore, the environmental fate of the perchlorate salts listed in Table 4-1 is dominated by the perchlorate anion."

Description of key information
In water, potassium perchlorate will rapidly dissolve and completely dissociate into the perchlorate anion and the corresponding cation.

Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
