Summary

HS heading 28.33 covers sulphates; alums; peroxosulphates (persulphates). It is in chapter 28 (inorganic chemicals; organic or inorganic compounds of precious metals, of rare-earth metals, of radioactive elements or of isotopes). It is split into 10 subheadings: 2833.11 (sodium sulphates, disodium sulphate), 2833.19 (sodium sulphates, other), 2833.21 (other sulphates, of magnesium), 2833.22 (other sulphates, of aluminium), 2833.24 (other sulphates, of nickel), 2833.25 (other sulphates, of copper) and 4 others. National tariff lines under heading 28.33 are live on border.bot for the United States (21 lines, also used by 1 other country).
