Alternative Classifications

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

2929.90Lower: 16.5% vs 41.5%

If other diisocyanates like IPDI

Only toluenediisocyanates use 2929.10; other aromatic/aliphatic isocyanates classify under the residual 2929.90 isocyanates subheading.

3208.10.00.00Lower: 38.7% vs 41.5%

If used in polyurea coatings formulation

Solvent-based coating preparations containing TDI classify as paints under Chapter 32, not pure compounds.

2710.19.11Lower: 25% vs 41.5%

If crude toluene distillation residues

Petroleum-derived crude toluene mixtures fall under Chapter 27 hydrocarbons, lacking defined isocyanate structure.
