Styrene for SBR Rubber Production from China
Styrene monomer refined for styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) production has controlled impurity levels to prevent interference with rubber curing. It is a separate chemically defined cyclic hydrocarbon, classifiable under tariff item 2902.50.00. The refinement for a specific application does not change its chemical identity.

Import Tips
• Document the impurity profile to show the styrene is a chemically defined compound, not a mixture
• Since styrene is a volatile organic compound, ensure compliance with Canadian environmental regulations
• Verify if a permit is needed under the Export and Import Permits Act for this chemical
