Liquefied Ethylene Gas for Petrochemical Production from Canada
Liquefied ethylene gas, a key feedstock in the production of polyethylene plastics and other petrochemicals, classified under HTS 2711.14.00.10 as liquefied ethylene with purity typically exceeding 99%. It is stored and transported in cryogenic tanks under pressure below its critical point. This classification applies specifically to ethylene in liquefied form as a petroleum gas.

Import Tips
• Verify ethylene purity exceeds 99% via lab certification to confirm HTS 2711.14.00.10 classification; obtain cryogenic transport permits and DOT compliance docs
• Common pitfall: mislabeling as non-liquefied gas shifts to gaseous hydrocarbon codes
