Silver Nitrate Crystals
Pure silver nitrate (AgNO3) in crystalline form, a white, odorless solid used primarily in analytical chemistry for silver ion testing and as a precursor in photography. It falls under HTS 2843.21.00.00 as a chemically defined inorganic compound of silver, the precious metal. Highly soluble in water, it must be stored away from light to prevent decomposition.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If impure or technical grade below analytical standards
Lower purity silver compounds not meeting 'chemically defined' criteria shift to other silver compounds subheading.
If when diagnostic reagents containing silver nitrate
Mixtures prepared for laboratory diagnostics fall under prepared reagents rather than pure compounds.
If in coloring sets for artists
Silver compounds set for artists' colors classified in prepared artists' colors chapter.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certificate (typically 99.9%+ AgNO3) to confirm classification; ensure light-proof packaging to prevent decomposition during transit; declare as hazardous material (UN1493) with proper MSDS
