Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If low silicon briquettes
Silicon content governs even in briquette form.
If complex fabricated shapes
Metal briquettes resembling reservoirs classify under Chapter 73.
If with chemical binders
Excessive binders make chemical preparation under Chapter 38.
