Stabilized Sulfur Dichloride Solution
> Stabilized sulfur dichloride solution consists of sulphur dichloride dissolved in a solvent, with stabilizers to prevent polymerization. Under Chapter 28 Note 1, solutions of chemically defined compounds are classified in this chapter if the solvent is for safety or transport and does not make the product suitable for a specific use. The core compound remains sulphur dichloride, falling under tariff item 2812.16.00.
