Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If complex cyanate salt form
Chapter notes direct complex salts of inorganic bases to 2842, but primary thorium compound stays here.
If nitrate classified by anion only
Radioactive metal nitrates classified by metal element per Chapter 28 structure.
If as calcium cyanamide derivative
Chapter note 2 excludes certain Chapter 31 fertilizers.
