Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If organic salt rather than inorganic
Note 3(C)(2) organic salts follow base/acid last in order, potentially shifting subheading.
If classified as general sodium carboxylate
Generic salt headings sometimes applied ignoring chapter 29 organic compound priority.
If marketed as mineral/organic fertilizer
Fertilizer applications shift to Chapter 31 despite organic acid origin.
