Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If specifically listed ketone-alcohol
More specific provisions before 'Other' take precedence in numerical tariff order.
If quaternary ammonium salt form
Salts of organic compounds classified with the base or acid last in order, potentially shifting to heterocyclic salts in 2933.
If with added stabilizers exceeding Chapter limits
Additives for preservation beyond note (f) make it a mixture in Chapter 38.
