Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If stearic acid-based for industrial soaps
Fatty acid salts prepared for specific uses like lubricants may classify as industrial fatty alcohol derivatives.
If classified by the saturated fatty acid component
Chapter notes require salts to follow the later numerical heading, but pure acid salts could shift if not amine-based.
If when imported as finished surfactant preparation
Products ready for retail or specific use as detergents fall under chapter 34 organic surface-active agents.
