Alternative Classifications

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

2922.19Lower: 16.5% vs 35%

If structurally viewed as an oxygen-function compound

Chapter notes allow classification by latest numerical heading; oxygen functions in 2922 could apply if not specifically named in 2918.

2931.20.00.00Higher: 38.7% vs 35%

If for organo-inorganic compounds emphasizing antimony-carbon links

Heading 2931 covers organo-inorganic with nonmetals/metals linked to carbon, potentially applicable if antimony dominates classification.
