Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If ammonium zinc double bromide salts
Double salts containing ammonium classify in 2842 per specific Chapter note.
If electroplating bath preparations
Mixtures for specific industrial processes fall in 3824, not pure compounds.
If primarily sulfate-bromide complex
Material composition dominance determines primary salt heading.
