Zirconium Powder from China
Zirconium powder is fine zirconium metal powder used in pyrotechnics, powder metallurgy, and as a reducing agent. It is classified under tariff item 8109.99.00 as other articles of zirconium because it is not covered by the specific forms in Chapter 81 (bars, rods, wire, plates, etc.) and does not meet the definition of waste and scrap.

Import Tips
• Confirm that the powder is not classifiable as unwrought zirconium (8109.20.00), as powders are specifically excluded from that heading
• Provide a sieve analysis showing that 90% or more by weight passes through a 1 mm mesh, as per Section XV Note 8
• Be aware that zirconium powder may be subject to import controls as a hazardous material; check with Transport Canada for shipping requirements
