UNSPSC 51181618 Potassium perchlorate, a Commodity code, covers the procurement of potassium perchlorate — an oxidizing agent used in pyrotechnic compositions, specialty chemicals, and laboratory applications. State and local governments purchase potassium perchlorate primarily through specialized chemical suppliers and distributors for fireworks displays, emergency signal devices, educational laboratory use, and maintenance of municipal safety equipment. The code draws solicitations from city and county public safety departments, parks and recreation bureaus, schools and universities, and emergency management agencies. Potassium perchlorate is commonly procured as a component or raw material rather than as a finished product, often bundled with other pyrotechnic or chemical materials in larger supply contracts.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code, and therefore does not support characterization of geographic spread, issuing-body concentration, or representative recent solicitations.
