Titanium oxides
Heading 2823 — Titanium oxides
Chapter 28: Inorganic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 282300 when importing or exporting titanium oxides, which are often utilized in pigments, coatings, and plastics. For example, shipments of titanium dioxide used in paint production fall under this code.
This code specifically covers titanium oxides, distinguishing them from other inorganic chemicals like those classified under HS-6 282310, which includes titanium oxides mixed with other materials. The purity and form of the titanium oxide can impact classification.
When dealing with titanium oxides, it’s important to note that they are primarily used for their white pigment properties and UV resistance. Products like titanium dioxide (TiO2) are common in various applications, from cosmetics to food additives.
If you're unsure whether your product qualifies for this HS-6, consider its composition and intended use. For instance, titanium oxides in a powdered form for industrial applications will typically be classified here, while those in a mixed state may require a different code.
