Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If monochlorinated polyhydric alcohol ethers
Single chlorine substitution uses different statistical suffix within same heading.
If when nitrogen impurities create ester/amine classification conflict
Chapter notes prioritize nitrogen-function compounds occurring later in numerical order.
If pre-packaged as pesticide intermediate for retail
Herbicide goods of specific chemicals move to Chapter 38.
