Products classified under HTS 3206.49.30.00
Zinc White Pigment Paste
A water-based paste containing zinc oxide particles used as a white pigment in artist paints and primers. It falls under HTS 3206.49.30.00 as a preparation based on zinc oxides for coloring materials, qualifying under note 3 to chapter 32. The high zinc oxide content provides opacity and durability in coatings.
Zinc Oxide Lithopone White Powder
A co-precipitated mixture of zinc oxide and barium sulfate used as a white pigment extender in rubber and plastics. Classified under HTS 3206.49.30.00 for zinc oxide-based coloring preparations per note 3. Provides brightness and UV resistance in colored compounds.
High-Opacity Zinc Oxide Artist Dispersion
Aqueous dispersion of micronized zinc oxide for professional watercolor and acrylic paints. Meets HTS 3206.49.30.00 as a luminophore preparation based on zinc oxides for coloring. Offers non-toxic white tinting superior to lead whites.
Zinc Ferrite Yellow Pigment
Heat-stable calcined zinc iron oxide used in powder coatings and ceramics. HTS 3206.49.30.00 covers zinc oxide-based inorganic coloring matter per chapter note 3. Excellent for high-temperature colored finishes.
UV-Blocking Zinc Oxide Sunscreen Base
Nano zinc oxide dispersion for mineral sunscreen formulations providing broad-spectrum UV protection. Falls under HTS 3206.49.30.00 as zinc oxide coloring preparation, though used for opacity and UV absorption. Transparent when applied despite white base.
Zinc Phosphate Anti-Corrosion Primer Pigment
Zinc oxide-phosphoric acid reaction product used in metal primers for corrosion inhibition. HTS 3206.49.30.00 for zinc oxide-based preparations with coloring properties. Provides both protection and pigmentation in industrial coatings.
Fluorescent Zinc Sulfide Luminophore Powder
Zinc oxide-activated zinc sulfide emitting green fluorescence under UV light. Specifically covered by heading 3206 for luminophores, subheading 3206.49.30.00 due to zinc oxide base. Used in safety markings and glow paints.
Zinc Chromate Priming Pigment
Lemon chrome pigment combining zinc oxide with chromic acid for aircraft primers. HTS 3206.49.30.00 as zinc-based coloring matter despite corrosion properties. Provides yellow pigmentation and passivation.
Opaque Zinc Oxide Printing Ink Base
High-hiding zinc oxide dispersion for white ink formulations in flexography. Classifies under HTS 3206.49.30.00 as coloring preparation before final ink mixing. Essential for achieving solid white coverage.
Ceramic Glaze Zinc Oxide Matting Agent
