Acrylic Impact Modifier Pellets MBAM from Japan
Methyl methacrylate-butadiene-acrylate-methyl methacrylate (MBAM) copolymer pellets used to toughen PVC. The acrylic monomers (methyl methacrylate and acrylate) predominate by weight over the butadiene, so the polymer is classified as an acrylic polymer. It is not a named copolymer in subheading 3906.10, so it falls under the 'Other' tariff item.

Import Tips
• Provide a detailed polymer composition breakdown to confirm the predominance of acrylic monomers over butadiene
• Confirm the pellets are in primary forms and not mixed with additives exceeding 1% by weight, which could change classification
• Check if the product is subject to anti-dumping or countervailing measures by reviewing the CBSA's measures list
