Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified by selenium/tellurium content in compounds
Certain oxide halides with specific nonmetal compositions may fall under other nonmetal headings.
If imported as a chemical preparation or mixture
Blends with stabilizers or solvents are classified as chemical preparations, not pure compounds.
