Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If converted to organothio compounds
Reaction products become organic sulfur compounds in Chapter 29; reactant stays inorganic 2813.
If for other nonmetal phosphides/phosphines
2853 covers phosphides like copper but notes include only specified nonmetal compounds; P4S3 specifically 2813.

Commercial Phosphorus Trisulfide Powder
Commercial phosphorus trisulfide (P4S3) is a red to yellow crystalline powder used primarily in the manufacture of safety match striking surfaces and organic synthesis. It falls under HTS 2813.90.50.00 as 'other' sulfides of nonmetals, specifically classified as commercial phosphorus trisulfide distinct from pure forms. This inorganic compound reacts with moisture to release toxic hydrogen sulfide gas.
Technical Grade P4S3 Flakes
Technical grade phosphorus sesquisulfide (P4S3) in flake form serves as a key intermediate in pesticide and lubricant additive production. Classified under HTS 2813.90.50.00 as 'other' commercial phosphorus trisulfide, a nonmetal sulfide excluded from organic chapters. It is highly flammable and requires inert atmosphere storage.
Phosphorus Trisulfide for Match Industry
Red phosphorus trisulfide specifically formulated for safety match production, providing the controlled ignition on striking surfaces. HTS 2813.90.50.00 covers this as commercial 'other' phosphorus trisulfide, a sulfide of nonmetals. It differs from red phosphorus (2804.40) by its sulfur content enabling lower ignition temperature.
Industrial Phosphorus Sesquisulfide Granules
Granular commercial P4S3 used in pyrotechnics and smoke composition manufacturing due to its controlled oxidation properties. Falls under HTS 2813.90.50.00 as 'other' sulfides of nonmetals—commercial phosphorus trisulfide. Particle size typically 1-3mm for safe handling.
Commercial Grade Phosphorus Sulfide 1314-85-2
Bulk commercial phosphorus trisulfide (CAS 1314-85-2) in 25kg drums for chemical manufacturing, distinguished by commercial impurities from analytical grades. HTS 2813.90.50.00 as 'other' commercial phosphorus trisulfide sulfides of nonmetals. Yellow to red powder with characteristic odor.
