Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pre-formulated into anticorrosion preparation
Additives in fuel/coolant mixtures classify as Chapter 38 preparations.
If sulfonated imidazole derivative
Organo-sulfur compounds take precedence in heading 2930.
If pesticide-active imidazole like prochloraz
Pesticides shift to Chapter 38 regardless of organic structure.
