Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sold as technical grade with impurities exceeding specification limits
Impure mixtures may shift from specific compound to 'other organo-inorganic compounds' in 2931.90
If complexed with metals or classified as phosphine derivative
Metal phosphonates or other phosphine compounds fall under Chapter 28 inorganic compounds
If imported as formulated pesticide intermediate rather than pure chemical
Pesticide technical materials are classified in Chapter 38 regardless of chemical structure
