Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for industrial rubber compounding use only
Preparations with specific chemical functions may shift to Chapter 38 if not primarily coloring.
If based on other inorganic pigments besides zinc oxide
Different base pigment changes to 'other' inorganic coloring matter subheading.
If mineral-derived without chemical modification
Earth colors and mineral pigments fall under heading 2530 if naturally occurring.
