Alternative Classifications

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

2809.20.00Same rate: 35%

If aluminum content <10% and marketed as phosphoric acid

Phosphoric acid solutions dominate classification when metal salt minor.

2833.29.30.00Higher: 40.5% vs 35%

If for fire-retardant textile treatment formulations

Complex phosphate blends for specific end-uses may classify under phosphonates.

3824.99.39Same rate: 35%

If sold as ready-to-use refractory binder with additives

Commercial preparations exceed pure compound scope of Chapter 28.
