Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing >50% grape pomace residues
Dried grape residues become Chapter 7 fruit products, not pure chemicals.
If other tartrate salts like calcium tartrate
Different cation salts have distinct 10-digit provisions within tartaric acid salts.
