Antimony Trioxide Powder Pellets from Japan
Pelletized antimony trioxide, a compound of antimony and oxygen, is presented in pellet form for use as a flame retardant additive in plastics. Although antimony trioxide is a chemical compound, the pellets are manufactured articles of antimony and are classified under 8110.90.00 as 'other' articles, provided they are not more specifically described elsewhere (e.g., as a prepared additive of Chapter 38). The pellets are not unwrought metal, waste, scrap, or powder.

Import Tips
• Confirm the pellets are not classified as a prepared additive under Chapter 38 (e.g
• if they contain binders or other chemicals beyond pure antimony trioxide)
• Provide a technical datasheet showing the pellet dimensions and composition to support classification as an article of antimony
• Note that if the pellets are merely agglomerated powder, they may be considered 'powders' under 8110.20.00, so verify the physical form
