Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane isomer
Different stereoisomer of tetrachloroethane has separate statistical suffix within same heading.
If organic composite solvent for retail or industrial cleaning
Solvent mixtures prepared for specific uses fall under Chapter 38, not pure compounds.
If unsaturated chlorinated hydrocarbon derivative
Presence of double/triple bonds moves classification to unsaturated derivatives in 2903.29.
