Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If surface-treated for synthetic pigment use
Paints and varnishes pigments often fall in Chapter 32 if prepared for direct application.
If in hydroxide form rather than oxide
Cobalt hydroxides are separately provided for in other subheadings of 2822.
If sold as ready-to-use glaze mixture
Prepared chemical mixtures for specific uses shift to 3824.
