Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If used as a luminophore or fluorescent brightening agent
Chapter note allows 3206 for inorganic/organic products as luminophores, shifting from standard pigments if function changes.
If chemically modified into a polymer-bound form
Pigment derivatives incorporated into resins may classify under Chapter 39 as plastics rather than pure coloring matter.
If in flake or powder form meeting crude criteria
Crude pigments in 3204.17.10 vs refined 'other' in .90; depends on processing state.
