scientific value, for the purposes for
which the instruments shown below are
intended to be used, are being
manufactured in the United States.
Comments must comply with 15 CFR
301.5(a)(3) and (4) of the regulations and
be postmarked on or before April 11,
2011. Address written comments to
Statutory Import Programs Staff, Room

semiconducting and other light emitting
materials. It will be used to analyze the
surface topography of the samples and
the corresponding light emitted from the
materials.
Justification for Duty-Free Entry:
There are no instruments of the same
general category manufactured in the
United States. Application accepted by
Commissioner of Customs: March 1,
2011.
Dated: March 16, 2011.

Commerce in Room 3720.
Docket Number: 11–012. Applicant:
UChicago Argonne, LLC. 9700 South
Cass Ave., Lemont, IL 60439.
Instrument: TFS500 Atomic Layer
Deposition System. Manufacturer:
Beneq OY, Finland. Intended Use: The
instrument will be used in experiments
on atomic layer deposition (ALD)
growth of thin film materials to
determine the optimal conditions of
temperature, pressure, flux and
precursor combinations. For the
research the instrument is required to
have a modular deposition chamber so
that the system can be reconfigured to
optimize the coating process for
different substrates. It also requires a
precursor delivery system that can be
heated to 500 degrees Celsius to
vaporize non-volatile chemical
precursors. It also requires inert gas
purging between the deposition
chamber and outer heating chambers to
contain the precursors without the need
for a gas-tight seal at this junction.
Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There
are no instruments of the same general
category being manufactured in the
United States. Application accepted by
Commissioner of Customs: February 2,
2011.
Docket Number: 11–016. Applicant:
UChicago Argonne, LLC. 9700 South
Cass Ave., Lemont, IL 60439–4873.
Instrument: Single Roll Presser.
Manufacturer: A–Pro Co., Ltd, South
Korea. Intended Use: The instrument
will be used for making novel electrodes
for lithium-ion cells, which are
subjected to electrochemical
performance testing to determine the
influence of the active materials in the
electrodes and electrolyte. The
instrument is unique in that it is semiautomated with a high attention to
dimensional tolerances, temperature
control and safety, helping guarantee
that the research cells made will be of
industrial level quality and consistency
for the experiments. Justification for
Duty-Free Entry: There are no
instruments of the same general
category being manufactured in the
United States. Application accepted by
Commissioner of Customs: February 2,
2011.

Docket Number: 11–018. Applicant:
Purdue University, Birck
Nanotechnology Center, 1205 West State
Street, West Lafayette, IN 47907–2057.
Instrument: Rapid Thermal Annealer.
Manufacturer: Qualiflow Jipelec,
France. Intended Use: The instrument
will be used to conduct fast temperature
ramping experiments with the purpose
of annealing the research sample within.
The instrument is designed for quick
ramping of temperature in order to keep
the thermal budget at a minimum. The
instrument has a temperature ramp rate
of 300 degrees Celsius per second. Other
key characteristics that distinguish this
instrument from others are vacuum
purge capability and contamination
control. Justification for Duty-Free
Entry: There are no instruments of the
same general category being
manufactured in the United States.
