This HTS category encompasses "Pigment red 177," a specific synthetic organic coloring matter. As a pigment, it is designed to impart color to various materials and is typically insoluble in its application medium. Its classification falls under the broader heading of synthetic organic coloring matter and preparations based thereon, indicating a manufactured organic substance used for dyeing or coloring, chemically defined for precise identification.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings involves understanding the specific pigment identity. While other entries at this level, such as "Pigment red 144" or "Pigment red 166," represent different chemical structures and coloristic properties, "Pigment red 177" refers to a unique chemical compound with its own set of characteristics, performance attributes, and potential applications. The numerical designation "177" is crucial for distinguishing this particular red pigment from others within the extensive list of pigments covered by this heading.

Since this node represents a specific, highly defined pigment, it is a leaf node within the HTS structure, meaning there are no further subdivisions.
