Laboratory Grade Potassium Bromate
High-purity potassium bromate (>99.5%) certified for analytical and laboratory use, such as in volumetric titrations and oxidation reactions in chemical analysis. It is classified under HTS 2829.90.0500 as a chemically defined potassium bromate, fitting Chapter 28's scope for inorganic oxygen compounds excluding mixtures.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If other alkali metal bromates like sodium or lithium
Other alkali metal bromates (not potassium) fall under 2829.19, while potassium has dedicated 2829.90.0500 per HTS specificity.
If used as inorganic luminophore pigment
Chapter 28 excludes luminophores classified in 3206; if doped for fluorescent properties, it moves out of pure chemical classification.
If sold as diagnostic reagent kit component
Prepared lab reagents or kits containing potassium bromate classify as diagnostic labs in 3822, not individual Chapter 28 compounds.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include lab-grade CoA and SDS with shipment for smooth customs clearance
• Label as 'Research Use Only - Not for Food' to prevent FDA scrutiny
• Store and transport as oxidizer to comply with DOT/IMDG regulations
