Fluoroaluminates & Other Complex Fluorine Salts (NESOI)

Lithium hexafluorophosphate (2826909010) — a key electrolyte salt in lithium-ion batteries — sits alongside fluorosilicates of sodium or potassium (2826901000) and other complex fluorine salts (2826909090) within this heading, making it commercially significant to the EV and energy-storage sectors. China and South Korea are the dominant suppliers, reflecting their central role in battery materials supply chains, with Japan and Germany also contributing. Importers of lithium hexafluorophosphate in particular should monitor Section 301 exposure given the China-origin concentration.
