Magnesium chlorate (magnesium dichlorate) is a chemical compound with molecular formula Cl2MgO6. It is a powerful desiccant and defoliant (esp. for cotton, soft fruit, potato, rice and wheat). Inhalation, ingestion or contact (skin, eyes) with vapors or substance may cause severe injury, burns or death. At the same time this compound can be found in some lubricant eye drops as an inactive ingredient.
