Alternative Classifications

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

2844Higher: 10% vs 6.5%

If when packaged with radioactive isotopes as complete scintillator system

Radioactive preparations containing scintillator compounds classified in Chapter 28 based on numerical order priority.

3824Higher: 15% vs 6.5%

If imported as 10% solution in toluene for immediate lab use

Prepared chemical mixtures for laboratory analysis take precedence over individual pure compounds.

2932.99.61.00Same rate: 6.5%

If structurally reclassified as modified oxazole without aromatic priority

Certain heterocyclic derivatives without clear aromatic character fall under earlier 2932 heading.
