Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3814.00.50Higher: 41% vs 28.7%

If formulated with surfactants as organic solvent mixtures

Cleaning solvent formulations containing HCFC-124 with detergents classify as Chapter 38 organic composite solvents rather than pure halogenated compounds.

8421.39.01Higher: 35% vs 28.7%

If imported in vapor degreasing equipment

Cleaning systems pre-charged with HCFC-124 solvents are classified as machinery in Chapter 84, not bulk chemicals.

2903.79Same rate: 28.7%

If dichlorotetrafluoroethane (HCFC-123)

Closely related HCFCs have distinct statistical reporting codes within 2903.79 based on specific isomer identification.
