Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If considered a rare-earth compound due to high yttria content
High yttria doping may reclassify under Chapter 28 rare-earth compounds if not predominantly ZrO2.
If prepared as a glass frit powder
Powdered forms fused for glassmaking fall under Chapter 32 glass materials.
If doped for semiconductor wafers
Doped oxides in disc/wafer form for electronics shift to Chapter 38 per Chapter 28 notes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm stabilization does not alter chemical definition via lab testing; label exact composition for HTS verification; watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese origins
