Vanadyl Sulfate VOSO4 from China

Vanadyl sulfate (VOSO4) is a blue crystalline compound used in analytical chemistry as a reducing agent and in vanadium redox flow batteries. Though a salt, it contains vanadium oxide hydrate equivalents and is imported under HTS 2825.30.00 for hydroxides. It provides vanadium in +4 oxidation state solutions.

Import Tips

Differentiate from pure vanadium salts in 2833 via oxide/hydroxide content declaration; require hydrate water analysis for accurate classification; label as toxic if hydrated form
