Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for culinary or non-specified uses
Mustard oil without industrial end-use spec falls to general 'other' rapeseed/mustard oils.
If already compounded into rubber mixtures
Finished synthetic rubber products are classified in Chapter 40, not raw oils.
If derived from sesame or other qualifying seeds
Different oilseed origin may shift to heading 1515 for other fixed vegetable fats.
