Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pre-mixed as complete battery electrolyte solution in retail packs
Assembled battery components classify as parts of primary cells in Chapter 85, not pure chemicals.
If for industrial soldering flux applications
Pickling preparations and fluxes containing zinc chloride as principal component fall in 3810.
If in hydrated form like zinc chlorohydrate
Chloride hydroxides of zinc may classify under other chlorides if hydroxide content alters chemical definition.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include battery manufacturing end-use certification; subject to anti-dumping if from China per Commerce Dept. orders
• Test for heavy metal impurities; non-compliant lots often rejected at entry for failing TSCA regs
