Sodium Dichromate Dihydrate
Sodium dichromate dihydrate (Na2Cr2O7·2H2O) is the hydrated form of sodium dichromate, a bright orange crystalline powder used primarily in chromium plating and leather tanning. It falls under HTS 2841.30.00.00 as a salt of an oxometallic acid, specifically the dichromate of sodium, meeting the chemical definition for classification in Chapter 28.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If treated as a chromium trioxide derivative or mixed salt
Complex chromates or preparations not purely sodium dichromate may shift to other chromate/perchromate headings in 2829.
If chemically defined but in diluted solution for retail or lab use
Preparations containing sodium dichromate but not meeting pure compound criteria fall under mixtures in 3824.
If complexed with other metals forming double salts
Double or complex salts of inorganic bases are directed to heading 2842 by Chapter Note, but 2833 covers certain complex salts if not purely dichromate.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity and hydration state via certificate of analysis to confirm classification; ensure HAZMAT documentation (UN 3085) for oxidizing solid properties; watch for REACH-like restrictions on chromium VI compounds in supply chain
