Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If contains only HFCs without HCFCs
HFC-only mixtures without chlorine derivatives classify under other halogenated hydrocarbon mixtures.
If primarily HCFC-142b with minimal other components
Predominant single HCFC may classify under its pure chemical subheading.
If liquefied petroleum gas dominates composition
Mixtures where propane/ethane base exceeds halogenated components shift to petroleum gases.
