Alternative Classifications

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

2810.00.00Higher: 36.5% vs 35%

If natural isotopic composition

Unenriched boron oxide is classified in heading 2810 as other metal oxides.

3818.00.00Higher: 50% vs 35%

If doped for semiconductor wafers

If processed into wafers or doped forms for electronics, it moves to heading 3818 per Chapter note.

2840Lower: 13.7% vs 35%

If considered a borate derivative

Some boron oxides may be interpreted as borates under heading 2840 if not purely isotopic.
