2816.40.10.00 - Of strontium

This HTS classification covers oxides, hydroxides, and peroxides specifically derived from strontium. These compounds are inorganic chemical substances characterized by their strontium content. Examples of goods falling under this category would include strontium oxide (SrO), strontium hydroxide (Sr(OH)2), and strontium peroxide (SrO2). These materials find applications in various industries, such as pyrotechnics for producing red colors, in ceramics and glass manufacturing, and as chemical intermediates.

This category is distinguished from its sibling category, 2816.40.20.00, by the specific metal cation it contains. While both categories fall under "Oxides, hydroxides and peroxides, of strontium or barium," 2816.40.10.00 exclusively pertains to strontium compounds, whereas 2816.40.20.00 covers compounds of barium. The elemental composition is the sole differentiating factor between these two closely related classifications.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the classification at 2816.40.10.00 is specific to the elemental identity of strontium in its oxide, hydroxide, or peroxide forms. Classification decisions within this code will primarily rely on confirming the presence of strontium and its oxidation state as an oxide, hydroxide, or peroxide.
