Alternative Classifications

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

2920.90Lower: 13.7% vs 36.5%

If organic phosphate esters misclassified

Chapter 29 covers organic phosphorus compounds; Chapter 28 limited to inorganic per notes.

2834.10Lower: 13.1% vs 36.5%

If ammonium nitrate-phosphate mixtures

Complex inorganic salts may fall under 2834 if not purely triammonium phosphate.

3824Lower: 15% vs 36.5%

If in prepared culture media sets

Biotech preparations for retail sale classify as mixtures under 3824 per exclusions.
