Phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) under AICIS

P2O5 (P4O10) · 五氧化二磷

Status: Listed. Phosphorus pentoxide is on the AICIS Inventory of Industrial Chemicals as a Listed Industrial Chemical. **SUSMP / Poisons Standard scheduling applies (verify the current Schedule entry against https://www.tga.gov.au/access-and-supply/poisons-standard before relying); P2O5 typically Schedule 5 or Schedule 6 at concentrated grade**. NOT on Australian Drug Control Act precursor list. NO active Australian AD/CVD case on Chinese-origin P2O5. Australia has no domestic P2O5 production; structurally net-importer for laboratory + chemical synthesis sectors. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty applies for Chinese-origin imports.

AICIS treats P2O5 as a routine listed industrial chemical with **moderate-to-high hazard profile** (Skin Corr. 1A + Eye Dam. 1 + STOT SE 3 + violent water-reaction). NO active Australian AD/CVD case. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty. Australia no domestic production; structurally net-importer.
