Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If niobium purity exceeds 99% and separated from iron
Pure niobium compounds or metals fall under Chapter 28 for chemical elements, not ferroalloys.
If certified as high-grade containing over 70% niobium
Higher niobium content ferroniobium qualifies for the specific 'Other' subheading with potentially different rates.
If chemically processed into a niobium salt solution for further alloying
Processed preparations of chemicals containing niobium shift to Chapter 38 for chemical products.
