Legal and explanatory notes for 3206200000
3206 CN Explanatory Notes: Other colouring matter; preparations as specified in note 3 to this chapter, other than those of heading 3203, 3204 or 3205; inorganic products of a kind used as luminophores, whether or not chemically defined
See note 5 to this chapter. Nucleate pigments, i.e., pigments consisting of grains or inert material (generally, of silica) each of which, by means of special technical processes, has been coated with an individual layer of inorganic colouring matter, are classified in the heading appropriate to the colouring matter constituting the coating. Thus, for example, pigments of the above type in which the coating consists of basic silico-chromate of lead are classified in subheading 3206 20 00; those in which the coating consists of copper borate or calcium plumbate are classified in subheading 3206 49 70.
3206 20 00 CN Explanatory Notes: Pigments and preparations based on chromium compounds
See the HS Explanatory Note to heading 3206, (A), (2), and, in so far as they concern preparations of this subheading, the four paragraphs following (13). This subheading includes: 1. molybdenum red, consisting of mixed crystals of lead molybdate, lead chromate and, usually, lead sulphate; 2. mixed crystals of lead sulphate, lead chromate, barium chromate, zinc chromate or strontium chromate; 3. pigments based on ferrous chromate (‘Siderin’ yellow), potassium dichromate and calcium dichromate or chrome oxide.
