3204.17.90.47 - Preparations based on pigment yellow 12

This HTS category, 3204.17.90.47, specifically classifies preparations that are based on Pigment Yellow 12. These preparations are essentially mixtures where Pigment Yellow 12 is the primary coloring agent, designed for use in various industrial applications. This means that while Pigment Yellow 12 is the core component, the preparation may also contain binders, extenders, or other additives that modify its physical form or performance characteristics, such as flow properties, dispersibility, or stability.

This classification distinguishes itself from sibling categories by its explicit reliance on Pigment Yellow 12. For instance, sibling entries cover preparations based on other specific pigments like Pigment Blue 15:3 or Pigment Green 7. Therefore, the defining characteristic for classification under 3204.17.90.47 is the presence and foundational role of Pigment Yellow 12 as the coloring matter within the preparation.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification ends at this level, meaning that any preparation where Pigment Yellow 12 is the principal constituent, and which is not specifically provided for elsewhere, will fall under this code. The focus remains on the specific pigment type that forms the basis of the preparation.
