Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If derived from petroleum refining and containing acyclic impurities
Petroleum-derived light oils with mixed hydrocarbons fall under Chapter 27, not pure cyclic compounds.
If containing both cyclane and cyclene structures
Mixtures of cyclanes and cyclenes are classified separately under 2902.30 per chapter notes.
If imported as formulated solvent mixture for retail
Organic solvent mixtures prepared for specific uses fall under Chapter 38.
