Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If as rare-earth compound or organometallic
Organometallic selenium compounds fall under headings 2843-2846, excluding pure elements.
If doped and formed into cylinders/rods for electronics
Chapter Note 8 specifies doped nonmetals in rod/cylinder form remain in Chapter 28, but wafers go to 3818.
If as phosphide compound >15% phosphorus
Selenium phosphides meeting the criteria fall under heading 2853 per Chapter Note 7.
