Subheadings
Products classified under HTS 3204.17.60
Phthalocyanine Blue Pigment Paste
Paste form of C.I. Pigment Blue 15:3 (phthalocyanine), dispersed in resin for paint manufacturing. Falls under HTS 3204.17.60 as a pigment preparation listed in U.S. note 3 to section VI. Synthetic organic base distinguishes it from inorganic pigments.
Benzimidazolone Orange Dispersion
Water-based dispersion of C.I. Pigment Orange 64 for waterborne coatings. HTS 3204.17.60 covers this note 3 preparation. Synthetic azo structure key to classification.
Isoindolinone Yellow Pigment
C.I. Pigment Yellow 110 for industrial ink applications. Classifies 3204.17.60 as other synthetic pigment per note 3. High chemical resistance profile.
Perylene Maroon Pigment Paste
Perylene-based C.I. Pigment Red 179 paste for OEM coatings. HTS 3204.17.60 for note 3 synthetic preps. Exceptional weatherfastness.
Pigment Red 122 Dispersion
A synthetic organic pigment dispersion based on quinacridone (C.I. Pigment Red 122), used in inks and coatings. Classified under HTS 3204.17.60 as a preparation based on synthetic organic coloring matter per additional U.S. note 3 to section VI. It qualifies due to its pigment form and specific listing in the note.
Carbon Black Pigment Preparation
Synthetic organic treated carbon black (e.g., Pigment Black 7 variant) in dispersion for plastics. HTS 3204.17.60 applies as preparation based on synthetic coloring matter per U.S. note 3. Note excludes pure elements but covers preparations.
Quinacridone Violet Pigment Powder
Micronized C.I. Pigment Violet 19 powder for high-performance coatings. Classified in 3204.17.60 for 'other' pigments/preparations in U.S. note 3. Synthetic organic structure fits chapter 32 heading.
