Manganese Ingot for Battery Production
Unwrought manganese ingots specially refined for use in lithium-manganese oxide cathodes in rechargeable batteries. Classified under HTS 8111.00.49.90 as other unwrought manganese, not electrolytically produced or waste/scrap. The pure metal form distinguishes it from alloys or processed articles.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If produced via electrolysis
Electrolytic process qualifies for the specific subheading 8111.00.10.00 within unwrought manganese.
If in metal compounds form
Manganese compounds like oxides for batteries fall under Chapter 28 chemicals, not pure metals.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include end-use statements for battery applications to support valuation; ensure no alloying elements exceed trace levels
• Provide chemical analysis reports confirming >99% manganese to prevent reclassification as Chapter 81 base metal alloys
