Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If stabilizer >2% or anti-dusting/coloring agents added
Excess additives per note (g) may render it a preparation of Chapter 38 rather than pure Chapter 29 compound
If misdeclared as vinyl alcohol derivative
Vinyl acetate is specifically an acetic acid ester under 2915; alcoholates classified differently per note 5(D)
