Alternative Classifications

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

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 36.5%

If diluted below 15% or mixed with stabilizers/inhibitors

Low-concentration solutions or preparations are classified as chemical mixtures in 3824, not pure compounds.

2832Same rate: 36.5%

If for other metal sulfites like zinc or calcium sulfite

Heading 2832 distinguishes sodium sulfites (2832.10) from sulfites of other metals (2832.29).
