2841.30.00.00 - Sodium dichromate

This HTS category, 2841.30.00.00, specifically designates sodium dichromate. Sodium dichromate is an inorganic chemical compound characterized by its bright orange-red crystalline appearance. It functions as a strong oxidizing agent and is widely employed in various industrial applications, including leather tanning, textile dyeing, pigment production, and as a corrosion inhibitor. Its classification is rooted in Chapter 28, which covers essential inorganic chemicals.

Within the broader group of "Salts of oxometallic or peroxometallic acids," this category is distinct from its siblings by its specific chemical identity. For instance, while 2841.50 encompasses other chromates and dichromates, this code isolates solely sodium dichromate. Similarly, it differentiates itself from categories covering manganites, molybdates, and tungstates, all of which are distinct metallic salts with different chemical compositions and industrial uses.

As this node represents a leaf category within the HTS, there are no further subcategories that subdivide sodium dichromate. Therefore, the classification of goods under 2841.30.00.00 is straightforward and applies directly to the chemical compound sodium dichromate, regardless of its specific purity or physical form, provided it meets the definition of the chemical substance.
