Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing organo-sulfur impurities defining its character
Organo-sulfur compounds take precedence if sulfur atoms are directly linked to carbon per heading 2930.
If pre-mixed as anti-corrosion additive
Anticorrosion preparations containing this compound as principal ingredient shift to heading 3811.
If polymerized into resin form
Amino-resins containing imidazole structures classify under Chapter 39 polymers.
