Last updated: August 2026 dataNon-lamellar aluminum powder consists of roughly spherical or irregular particles produced by atomization, distinguishing it from the flat, platelet-shaped flake form. It is a critical input for pyrotechnics, explosives, sintered metal parts, and certain chemical processes where high surface reactivity is required. Australia leads US import supply, followed by Germany and China, reflecting both smelter-adjacent atomization capacity and specialty chemical manufacturing. All imports enter under the single 10-digit line 7603100000, and shipments are subject to Section 232 tariffs on aluminum products.

The distinction is structural: non-lamellar powders have irregular or spherical particle shapes (typically atomized), while lamellar powders are flat flakes produced by milling. CBP classifies them under separate 6-digit headings — 760310 for non-lamellar and 760320 for lamellar — so particle morphology documentation from the manufacturer is essential to support the correct tariff line.
Yes. Aluminum powder imports are subject to Section 232 tariffs applicable to aluminum articles. Importers should verify current exclusion status and confirm whether any product-specific exclusions apply to their supplier and specification before entry.
