(B) CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND CHEMICAL OR OTHER PREPARATIONS With only three exceptions (see para aphs (7), (19) and (32) below), this heading does not apply to separate chemically defined e ements or compounds. gr The chemical products classified here are therefore products whose corn osition is not chemically defined, whether they are obtained as by- roducts of the manu acture of other substances (this applies, for example, to naphthenic acids7 or prepared directly. P The chemical or other preparations are either mixtures (of which emulsions and dispersions are special forms) or occas~onall solutions. Aqueous solutions of the chemical products of Chapter 28 or 29 remain classi led within those Chapters, but solutions of these products in solvents other than water are, apart from a few exceptions, excluded therefrom and accordingly fall to be treated as preparations of this heading. ? The preparations classified here may be either wholly or partly of chemical roducts (this is generally the case) or wholly of natural constituents (see, for example, paragrap (24) below). However, the heading does not cover mixtures of chemicals with foodstuffs or other substances with nutritive vaIue, of a kind used in the reparation of certain human foodstuffs either as ingredients or to improve some of their characteristics,g..!( improvers for pastry, biscuits, cakes and other bakers' wares), provided that such mixtures or substances are valued for their nutritional content itself.
