Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily phosphides or cyanamides post-processing
Note 2(e) directs specific carbon compounds including cyanamide derivatives to 2853.
If for chemically treated, non-radioactive residues
Prepared chemical residues lacking Chapter 28 specificity move to Chapter 38.
