Alternative Classifications

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

2842.10.00.00Higher: 38.7% vs 28.6%

If double salt like calcium bromo-sulfate

Chapter note mandates double salts in 2842 regardless of individual components.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 28.6%

If industrial drilling fluid preparations with additives

Prepared chemical preparations for specific uses classify in 3824, not pure compounds.

3104.20.00Lower: 25% vs 28.6%

If marketed as potash fertilizer component

Chapter 31 note 3 excludes certain fertilizer compounds from Chapter 28.
