Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3206.41.00Higher: 36.5% vs 25%

If used directly as inorganic pigment colorant

Finished titanium oxide pigments are in Chapter 32, not ores.

2601.11.00Higher: 35% vs 25%

If misidentified as coarse iron ore with titanium impurities

Statistical notes define coarse iron ores separately; titanium primary shifts classification.
