Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If blended with rubber accelerators or vulcanizing agents
Mixtures of chemicals not chemically defined fall under Chapter 38 prepared binders.
If marketed solely as a pharmaceutical intermediate without triazine emphasis
Other nitrogen-function compounds if not specifically identified as triazine derivatives.
If compressed into fuel tablets with binders
Chapter 29 excludes metaldehyde/hexamethylenetetramine in fuel forms per note (i).
