Alternative Classifications

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

2921.59.80Higher: 31.5% vs 6.5%

If classified primarily by amino-function

Imidazole-ring amino compounds take precedence, but amine-function compounds may classify under 2921 if nitrogen-function dominates.

3824.99.39Higher: 35% vs 6.5%

If when imported as aqueous solution for safety transport

Chapter 29 note (e) excludes solutions where solvent renders product suitable for specific use beyond general purposes.
