Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If isotopically labeled (e.g., 13C-isoprene)
Isotope-modified compounds classified in Chapter 28 regardless of organic nature.
If diagnostic lab reagent kit
Reagents put up for specific diagnostic use fall under Chapter 38 lab reagents.
If polymerized to cyclic form
Polymerization changes from acyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon to Chapter 29 unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include GC-MS analysis certificate verifying isoprene ≥98% and impurity profile for customs chemical verification
• Small package exemption may apply for lab quantities <1L but still requires UN2357 proper shipping name
• Avoid misclassification as Chapter 38 reagent preparation; remains Chapter 29 due to chemical purity dominance
