This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If true silver powder form
Powder definition applies strictly; compacted clad exceeds it for 7111.
If platinum powder predominates
Platinum powders exclude other PGMs per note 2, classify separately.
If shaped into tool blanks
Further working into interchangeable tools moves to Chapter 82.
