Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If doped or prepared as a luminophore for pigments
Inorganic products used as luminophores are excluded from Chapter 28 per chapter note and classified in heading 3206.
If mixed with other substances or in retail packaging
Complex mixtures or preparations not chemically defined fall under 3824 as chemical products not elsewhere specified.
If of other metals like sodium or not specifically calcium
Other tungstates of metals besides calcium are classified separately in 2841.90.
