Import Tips
• Note that YSZ is a mixture of oxides, not a single chemically defined compound; however, it is still classified as zirconium dioxide under heading 28.25
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing the yttria content
• If the product is used in thermal barrier coatings, ensure it is not applied to a substrate, which would be classified as an article
