Marlex LLDPE 0202HN Linear Low Density Polyethylene Resin

Marlex LLDPE 0202HN is a high-density linear low density polyethylene resin with a specific gravity less than 0.94, produced by copolymerization of ethylene with butene-1. It falls under HTS 3901.10.5010 as it meets the 'polyethylene' designation where ethylene monomer units contribute 95% or more by weight. Primarily used for blown film applications in packaging.

Alternative Classifications

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

3901.90.10Lower: 35% vs 41.5%

If specific gravity 0.94 or higher

Polyethylene with specific gravity of 0.94 or more falls under 3901.90.10, regardless of LLDPE structure

3902.10.00Same rate: 41.5%

If copolymer with >5% polypropylene monomers predominating

Per subheading note (a)(4), classifies by predominant monomer unit if ethylene <95% and other comonomer exceeds it

3901.10.10Same rate: 41.5%

If chemically modified LLDPE

Chemically modified polymers classify under 'Other' (3901.10.50) but may shift if modification creates specific coverage elsewhere

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify specific gravity is below 0.94 and ethylene content exceeds 95% by weight per subheading notes to avoid reclassification

Provide manufacturer's specification sheets documenting LLDPE composition and primary form (pellets/resin)

Common pitfall: blends with >5% other monomers shift to predominant monomer subheading
