Alternative Classifications

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

2513.10.00Higher: 35% vs 8.8%

If natural rather than artificial/synthetic corundum

Natural corundum (emery) from mineral sources classified in Chapter 25, lacking artificial fusing process.

3818.00.00Higher: 50% vs 8.8%

If doped with elements for electronic applications and cut into wafers

Doped chemical elements in worked forms (discs/wafers) move to 3818 per Chapter note.

2833.25.00.00Higher: 26.4% vs 8.8%

If for rare earth-modified aluminum oxide salts

Complex salts or peroxysalts of aluminum fall under specific 2826-2842 headings.
