Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If complexed with sulfates or sold as mixed salts
Complex salts fall under 2842 or other salt headings per Chapter notes on double salts.
If pesticide-grade with specific formulations
Insecticides like methyl bromide mixtures classify in Chapter 38, not pure bromides.
If in halide oxide form rather than pure bromide
Halide oxides of nonmetals shift to 2812; pure bromides stay in 2827.
