Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for No. 5 or heavier fuel oils
Heavier grades with higher viscosity classify downstream in 2710.19.11.
If liquefied natural gas derived
Propane/natural gas liquids fall under 2711, not petroleum distillates.
If surface-active diesel additives dominate
Preparations >70% surfactants shift to Chapter 34.
