Sodium Tungstate Dihydrate
Sodium tungstate dihydrate (Na2WO4·2H2O) is a white crystalline salt derived from tungstic acid, classified under HTS 2841.80.0050 as an 'other' tungstate (wolframate) salt of a peroxometallic or oxometallic acid. It is commonly used in the production of tungsten metal and as a reagent in chemical synthesis.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If supplied as anhydrous tungstic acid or oxide
Tungstic acid/oxides fall under heading 2825 for metal oxides, not salts.
If containing phosphotungstate complex
Complex salts like phosphotungstates are classified in 2839 as other treated salts.
If double or complex salt with gold/other metals
Chapter notes direct double/complex salts to 2842.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity and hydration state via certificate of analysis to confirm classification as chemically defined tungstate
• Ensure SDS and proper hazardous material labeling for transport, as it may be regulated
• Avoid misclassification as tungsten oxide (2825.90); tungstates are distinct metal salts
