Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily anti-knock preparations or fuel additives
Fatty mixtures with octane-boosting additives shift to automotive chemical preparations.
If sold as incomplete mixtures for food/animal feed
Less processed vegetable/animal fat blends without industrial prep fall under animal/veg fats.
If functions primarily as lubricant or grease base
Predominant lubricating properties classify as industrial lubricants rather than NES chemicals.
