Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the impurities make it a mixture rather than a single compound
Mixtures of alcohols may be classified under other saturated monohydric alcohols.
If the product is a complex mixture for a specific industrial use
Chemical products not elsewhere specified may apply.
