Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified as commercial iron oxide rather than 'other'
Statistical suffixes differentiate commercial vs specialty grades within the same heading.
If in granular or flake form as prepared coloring matter
Processed physical forms for pigments may fall under Chapter 32 glass/powder preparations.
If containing metallic salts beyond pure iron oxide
Complex metal salts are classified under heading 2841 for salts of other metals.
