Medium Density Polyethylene Resin MDPE 2400 from Germany

Medium density polyethylene resin with specific gravity between 0.926-0.940, supplied in pellet form for extrusion and molding applications. Classified under HTS 3901.10.5030 as it is polyethylene with specific gravity less than 0.94 and meets the 'medium density' criteria per subheading notes, where the ethylene monomer units contribute over 95% by weight.

Import Tips

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
