Alternative Classifications

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

2842.90Lower: 13.3% vs 29.2%

If prepared as a complex salt with another inorganic base

Complex salts or double salts of inorganic bases, including strontium, are classified in heading 2842 per Chapter Note 6.

3102.60.00.00Lower: 25% vs 29.2%

If mixed with other nutrients for agricultural fertilizer use

Strontium nitrate blended into fertilizers falls under Chapter 31 mixtures, excluded from Chapter 28 by Chapter Note 3.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 29.2%

If impure or containing additives for retail pyrotechnic kits

Chemical preparations not chemically defined, like mixtures for fireworks, are covered in 3824 rather than pure nitrates.
