Luminescent Grade Zinc Sulfide Powder (99.99% Purity)
High-purity zinc sulfide powder, luminescent grade with 99.99% or more purity by weight, used primarily in the production of phosphors for displays and lighting. It falls under HTS 2830.90.1000 as a chemically defined sulfide of zinc meeting the specific purity and grade requirements for luminescent applications. This subheading distinguishes it from lower-purity or non-luminescent zinc sulfides.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If when imported as finished luminescent pigments for retail or industrial paints
Processed into luminophores ready for use in paints or inks, covered by heading 3206 rather than raw inorganic compounds of Chapter 28.
If doped or mixed with organic binders for specific electronic applications
Mixtures or preparations not chemically defined as pure sulfides fall into Chapter 38 as chemical products not elsewhere specified.
If for colloidal dispersions used in optics rather than luminescent solids
Colloidal or precipitated forms shift to precious metal compounds or phosphides heading if not purely sulfides.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certification from supplier via lab analysis reports to confirm 99.99% threshold; declare as 'luminescent grade' to avoid reclassification
• Ensure SDS includes CAS 1314-98-3 and luminescent properties; watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese origins
