Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If contains >50% styrene for copolymer production
Styrene-butadiene mixtures may classify under cyclic hydrocarbons if styrene dominates.
If for other liquefied gaseous hydrocarbon mixtures
Less specific C4 streams not meeting butadiene purity fall under 'other' liquefied gases.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Use IMDG Code certified containers; provide temperature logs during transit; ensure bill of lading specifies 'butadiene, stabilized' UN1010

Liquefied 1,3-Butadiene
Pure liquefied 1,3-butadiene (C4H6), a gaseous hydrocarbon liquefied under pressure for storage and transport. It falls under HTS 2711.14.00.40 as butadiene within the category of liquefied petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons, specifically the butadiene subheading.
Polymer-Grade Liquefied Butadiene
High-purity liquefied butadiene (>99.5%) specifically refined for polymerization in rubber and plastics production. Classified under HTS 2711.14.00.40 due to its liquefied gaseous hydrocarbon form and butadiene composition.
Industrial Liquefied Butadiene-1,3
Liquefied 1,3-butadiene for industrial chemical synthesis, meeting specifications for latex and elastomer production. HTS 2711.14.00.40 applies to this liquefied form of butadiene as a petroleum gas.
Stabilized Liquefied Butadiene
Liquefied butadiene with polymerization inhibitors (TBPE/PPP) to maintain stability during storage and shipping. Classified under HTS 2711.14.00.40 as butadiene despite minor stabilizers, as they don't change principal character.
