About heading 3206
Other coloring matter; preparations as specified in note 3 to this chapter, other than those of heading 3203, 3204 or 3205; inorganic products of a kind used as luminophores, whether or not chemically defined
Heading 3206 covers other coloring matter and preparations not covered by headings 3203, 3204 or 3205, plus inorganic products used as luminophores. The lines split first by titanium dioxide content, then by chromium compounds, then by other coloring matter such as ultramarine, zinc sulfide, iron oxide, zinc oxide, carbon black, hexacyanoferrates and cadmium. A final line covers inorganic luminophores.
