Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If hydrogen peroxide solidified with urea
Specific stabilized peroxides classify in 2847 per Chapter 28 note 2(e); bromates remain in 2829 unless fitting peroxide exclusions.
If converted to organic heterocyclic bromides
Organic derivatives of bromates shift to Chapter 29; pure inorganic potassium bromate stays in Chapter 28.
If used in pesticide formulations
Pesticide products containing bromates classify under Chapter 38, excluded from pure Chapter 28 compounds.
