Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If blended with other driers into paint additive mixtures
Antiknock preparations or paint driers as chemical mixtures shift to Chapter 38.
If imported as synthetic paint drier solutions
Paints and varnishes with lead driers are classified by function under Chapter 32.
If pure lead monoxide (litharge) without suboxide properties
Distinct chemical composition (PbO vs Pb2O) determines specific subheading placement.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide formulation sheets showing <0.5% use in final paint to claim chemical classification
• Comply with CPSC lead paint bans by documenting non-consumer decorative use
• Use inert atmosphere packaging to prevent oxidation during transit

Leady Litharge Industrial Grade
Leady litharge, also known as lead suboxide (Pb2O), is a yellowish powder used primarily in the production of lead-acid batteries as an active material precursor. It falls under HTS 2824.90.10.00 as a specific type of lead oxide, chemically defined as lead suboxide, distinct from pure litharge or red lead. This compound is essential for forming the paste applied to battery plates.
Battery-Grade Leady Litharge Powder
High-purity leady litharge powder optimized for lead-acid battery production, with controlled particle size for optimal paste formation. Classified under HTS 2824.90.10.00 due to its chemical identity as lead suboxide, a key raw material in the battery industry per Chapter 28 notes for chemically defined inorganic compounds.
Technical Grade Lead Suboxide (Leady Litharge)
Technical grade leady litharge used in glass manufacturing and ceramic glazes, where it acts as a fluxing agent. It is specifically lead suboxide under HTS 2824.90.10.00, fitting Chapter 28 for metal oxides excluding those covered by other chapters like glass frits.
Leady Litharge Catalyst Grade
Catalyst-grade lead suboxide employed in oxidation reactions for chemical synthesis. Classified in HTS 2824.90.10.00 as a chemically defined inorganic compound of lead per Chapter 28 definitions.
