U.S. imports of other salts of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (HS 290435) totaled $3K in April 2026, traded with 2 countries.
Other Salts of Perfluorooctane Sulfonic Acid imports of $3K in April 2026 ran 95% below the year-to-date monthly average of $51K.
Last updated: April 2026 dataBeyond the lithium and potassium forms, the remaining PFOS salts — ammonium, diethanolammonium, and others — are consolidated under a single US tariff line (2904350000). China and Norway are the leading sources of these materials, reflecting both legacy chemical manufacturing capacity and specialty production for niche industrial applications. Like all PFOS-related substances, these salts are subject to EPA TSCA oversight and may face import restrictions tied to persistent organic pollutant frameworks.

All other salts of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid not separately enumerated enter under tariff line 2904350000. Goods of Chinese origin in this heading are subject to Section 301 tariffs; Norwegian-origin goods are not subject to Section 301 but should be assessed for any applicable MFN duty.
China's large-scale fluorochemical manufacturing base makes it a volume supplier of PFOS salts broadly, while Norway's presence reflects specialized industrial chemistry capacity, historically linked to electrochemical and specialty surfactant production. Supply concentration in these two countries creates meaningful origin-diversification risk given the evolving regulatory environment around PFAS substances.
