Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If when formulated as a herbicide containing other pesticidal additives
Herbicide formulations with dinoseb as active ingredient mixed with carriers or other substances classify under Chapter 38 pesticide headings.
If imported as a salt form without meeting pure compound purity standards
Certain sulfonamide or nitrated compounds may shift to Chapter 29 heterocyclic provisions if not strictly phenol derivatives.
