Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pre-dispersed in glass frit form
Powdered glass preparations with fluxes fall under Chapter 32, not pure inorganic salts.
If other complex fluorine salts like ammonium bifluoride
Ammonium-based complex fluorides classify separately from sodium fluoroaluminates.
