HSN Code Details
This code covers silicon that is not further specified, distinguishing it from HSN 28046100 which refers to silicon dioxide and HSN 28047000 which denotes silicon alloys. The material is a pure elemental silicon used primarily in manufacturing and research.
When shipping silicon, ensure the container is dry and free from contaminants, as moisture can affect purity. Standard ISO containers are acceptable, but include a moisture‑indicator card to satisfy importer quality checks.
