Alternative Classifications

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

2843Same rate: 40.5%

If defined platinum compounds like chloroplatinic acid

Chemically defined salts or acids of platinum go under specific compounds subheading.

3815.11.00.00Lower: 35% vs 40.5%

If supported on carbon as finished catalyst

Catalysts with precious metal on carrier classify as supported catalysts.

3824Lower: 15% vs 40.5%

If chemical mixture for industrial use

Complex preparations not purely colloidal fall into chemical mixtures.
