Nickel Flakes Type 123 from China
Fine nickel flakes Type 123 with average particle size of 10-20 microns, produced by milling high-purity nickel for uniform dispersion. Classified under HTS 7504.00.00.50 as nickel flakes distinct from powders due to their flat, lamellar shape. Primarily used in conductive coatings and polymer composites.

Import Tips
• Verify purity certificate (>99% nickel) as impurities affect classification and duty; test via ICP analysis
• Declare average particle size and production method to avoid reclassification as nickel powder
