Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If specific gravity <0.926
Polyethylene with lower density qualifies as low density polyethylene in the specific gravity <0.94 series.
If contains >5% propylene comonomer
Predominant monomer shifts to propylene, moving to copolymers of ethylene with propylene per subheading note (a)(4).
If chemically modified or with significant additives
Chemically modified polymers or those not meeting 95% ethylene threshold fall under 'Other' per subheading note (a)(3).

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify specific gravity certification (0.926-0.940) and monomer content (>95% ethylene) via lab testing to confirm classification
• Provide melt flow index and density specs in entry docs to avoid reclassification to low density
• Ensure pellets are free of additives exceeding 5% to stay in primary forms
