ECCN 1C241
NPATRhenium and alloys containing rhenium .
What This ECCN Covers
ECCN 1C241 controls rhenium and alloys containing rhenium, as defined in the entry. Rhenium is a high-temperature metal used in superalloys and catalysts with proliferation-relevant uses, so it is controlled for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Anti-Terrorism reasons.
Who needs to check this?
Producers and exporters of rhenium metal, rhenium-bearing superalloys, and rhenium catalysts for aerospace and refining applications.
Compliance tip
Confirm the rhenium content and form against the entry. With NP among the reasons, license exceptions are limited — verify the Country Chart and apply nuclear/high-temperature end-use diligence.
Items Covered
- 1. Alloys containing 90% by weight or more of rhenium;
- 2. Alloys containing 90% by weight or more of any combination of rhenium and tungsten; and
- b.Having both of the following characteristics:
- 1. In forms with a hollow cylindrical symmetry (including cylinder segments) with an inside diameter between 100 mm and 300 mm; and
- 2. A mass greater than 20 kg.
Control Reasons
Items controlled for nuclear nonproliferation reasons.
Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons. Most items on the CCL have AT controls.
