As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level signifies a specific, final tariff treatment or restriction for the identified chemical compound under the temporary provisions. Importers must carefully consult the specific notes and proclamations associated with this subheading to understand the precise conditions, durations, and any applicable duty rates or quantitative limits that govern its importation.
