Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If organo-sulfur content dominates over phosphorus linkage
Chapter notes separate organo-sulfur (2930) from other organo-inorganic (2931); sulfur-carbon priority determines heading.
If for retail-packed or diluted preparations
Consumer chemical preparations fall outside Chapter 29 per exclusion notes into prepared binders Chapter 38.
