HEADING

CHAPTER

In plain English

This category includes esters of phosphoric acid and their salts, such as lactophosphates, along with versions that have been treated with halogens, sulfonic groups, nitro groups, or nitroso groups. The goods are split into two groups based on whether they are specifically tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate. One group covers only that specific compound, while the other group covers all other items in this category.
