Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If cleaner scrap with higher copper yield
Secondary materials with viable direct recovery classify as copper scrap.
If from uranium/radium processing
Specific radioactive slag residues go to 2619, overriding general 2620.
If containing rare earth compounds
Salts/compounds of rare-earths/metals shift to Chapter 28 chemicals.
