Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If mineral earth colors like natural iron oxides
Earth colors from minerals classify under heading 2530, not synthetic pigments.
If for polypropylene with minor pigment
Plastic material dominates if pigment <25%.
If prepared with synthetic organic color lakes
Pigments prepared from lakes fall under 3207.
