Italian term or phrase: perclorati
Can anyone tell me what these are or this is? In the following, dealing with the stability and reactivity of a paint spray:

XILENE: è stabile, ma può dare reazioni violente in presenza di ossidanti forti come acido solforico, nitrico, perclorati. E biodegradabile in acqua e si decompone alla luce.

Thanks for any help.
