The Chloric acid chemical formula is HCIO3. It is a dangerous acid known to humans that can causes flames to deflagrate on contact. With a mixture of potassium, chlorate and sugar it will burn when concentrated to chloric acid production and become highly unstable. The chloric acid major production started during the Industrial Revolution in Europe it was used to make vinyl chloride for PVC pipes. Another use for the acid is numerous smaller-scale applications, including
household cleaning, production of gelatin and other food additives, descaling,
and leather processing. The acid was first discovered in the seventeenth century, by Johann Rudolf Glauber from
Karlstadt am Main, Germany in which he used sodium chloride salt and sulfuric acid for the
preparation of sodium sulfate in the Mannheim process, releasing hydrogen
chloride gas, in which is very harmful to humans. Has a pH value of 1, which is a strong acid.
