Microencapsulated Alachlor
Microencapsulated alachlor designed for controlled release, where the encapsulation serves as a delivery mechanism without changing the chemical identity of the active ingredient. Since the core compound remains alachlor, it falls under tariff item 2924.25.00, provided the encapsulation is for transport or safety purposes.
