Alternative Classifications

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

3812Same rate: 41.5%

If marketed primarily as compound plasticizer for plastics

Heading shifts to plasticizers if end-use is plastics rather than rubber stabilization.

3824Lower: 15% vs 41.5%

If waste or residual TMQ mixtures from production

Contaminated or unfit residues may qualify as chemical waste under 3824 notes.
