Products classified under HTS 2804.50.00.20
Refined Tellurium Metal Ingots
High-purity tellurium ingots, typically 99.99% pure, used in the production of semiconductors and alloys. This elemental form of tellurium, a nonmetal in Chapter 28, is classified under HTS 2804.50.0020 as uncompounded tellurium metal.
High-Purity Tellurium Shot
Small spherical pellets of 5N pure tellurium (99.999% purity) used for vapor deposition in thin-film solar cells. As uncompounded elemental tellurium, it fits HTS 2804.50.0020 under the nonmetals heading of Chapter 28.
Tellurium Powder 99.99% Pure
Fine tellurium powder (-100 mesh) at 99.99% purity, ideal for alloying with steel to improve machinability. Classified as elemental tellurium under HTS 2804.50.0020, distinct from compounds per Chapter 28 notes.
99.9999% Pure Tellurium Rods
6N purity tellurium rods (20mm diameter) for research and single-crystal growth in semiconductors. As chemically pure elemental tellurium, it falls under HTS 2804.50.0020.
5N Tellurium Granules
Ultra-high purity (99.999%) tellurium granules for use in infrared detectors and thermoelectric devices. This granular elemental tellurium is specifically covered by HTS 2804.50.0020 as a nonmetal.
