Levapren 700HV EVA Powder
Levapren 700HV is a high vinyl acetate (70%) ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer supplied as a powder in primary form. It is used as a compounding ingredient in rubber and plastics applications, such as tire treads and hoses. Because the vinyl acetate comonomer contributes 95% or more by weight of the polymer content, it is classified under tariff item 3901.30.00 as an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the vinyl acetate content is below 95% by weight and ethylene predominates
The subheading note 1(a)(1) requires 95% or more of the named polymer's monomer units; otherwise, classification falls under the polymer that predominates by weight.
If the polymer is chemically modified or contains other comonomers
Chemically modified polymers or copolymers not meeting the 95% threshold for a named polymer are classified in the 'Other' subheading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the vinyl acetate content is clearly documented on the commercial invoice to support classification under 3901.30.00
• Provide a technical data sheet or certificate of analysis to the CBSA if requested
• If the powder is mixed with plasticizers or fillers, it may be considered a composition and could affect the tariff classification
