Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide TSCA certification; antimony compounds require Section 8 reporting for volumes >10,000 lbs/year
• Solid material but toxic dust hazard—requires NIOSH-approved respirators for handling documentation
• Common misclassification as 2835 antimony salts; insist on 2931 organometallic classification

Tetraethyl Lead (TEL)
Tetraethyl lead is an organo-inorganic compound where lead atoms are directly linked to carbon in ethyl groups, used historically as an antiknock additive in gasoline. It falls under HTS 2931.90.90 as 'other organo-inorganic compounds' since it contains a metal (lead) directly bonded to carbon and doesn't fit specific subheadings. The chapter notes confirm classification in heading 2931 for such metal-carbon bonded compounds.
