Alternative Classifications

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

2846.90.80Lower: 3.7% vs 28.7%

If supplied as strontium alloy with rare-earth metals

Interalloyed strontium with rare-earths shifts to 'rare-earth metals, scandium and yttrium, whether or not intermixed or interalloyed' per heading 2805 structure.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 28.7%

If for doped semiconductor-grade strontium

Doped chemical elements for electronics, if cut into wafers or discs, fall under heading 3818 per Chapter 28 notes, or as mixtures in 3824.

2853.90Lower: 12.8% vs 28.7%

If in phosphor copper form with >15% phosphorus

Chapter note specifies copper phosphide (phosphor copper) with >15% P under 2853, potentially applicable if strontium variant meets criteria.
