Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If liquefied petroleum gas mixture
LPG mixtures containing ethane as component fall under Chapter 27 petroleum gases, not pure chemicals.
If containing >50% butane by weight
Mixtures where butane predominates classified separately within same heading.
