Dead-burned Magnesia DBM-95
Dead-burned magnesia sintered at 1700-2200°C from calcined magnesite, achieving low reactivity and high hydration resistance with 95% MgO content. Falls under HTS 2519.90.10.00 as sintered magnesia, essential for basic refractory bricks in cement kilns and non-ferrous metal furnaces.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If purity below 92% MgO or contains significant fluxes
Lower grade or fluxed magnesia falls under 'other magnesium oxide' statistical suffix, potentially different duty treatment.
If pre-formed into finished refractory bricks
Magnesia shaped into refractory bricks for furnaces becomes worked articles in Chapter 69, not raw mineral material.
If dissolved or reacted to form calcium magnesium carbonate
Chemical compounds of calcium/magnesium carbonates fall under inorganic salts in Chapter 28.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Require loss on ignition (LOI) test results below 3% to prove complete dead-burning and avoid classification as caustic calcined magnesia
• Document end-use as refractories; shipments destined for fertilizer may trigger reclassification review under 3105
• Ensure bulk packaging labeling specifies 'for refractory use only' to prevent misuse classification
