Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3824.99Higher: 15% vs 6.5%

If formulated as aqueous corrosion inhibitor solution for retail

Mixtures containing benzotriazole as active ingredient for specific use like anti-freeze preparations fall under prepared chemical mixtures, not pure compounds.

3811.90.00.00Higher: 41.5% vs 6.5%

If supplied as additive in anti-freeze preparations

When intentionally mixed with other substances for antifreeze use, classified as fuel additives rather than pure heterocyclic compound.
