Chrome Green Pigment (Chromium Oxide Base)
Chrome green pigment composed primarily of chromium(III) oxide blended with other inorganic substances for durable green colouration. The chromium oxide component falls under this tariff item as an 'other' chromium oxide, provided the blend does not render it a separate pigment preparation of Chapter 32.
