Octene-Based LLDPE Granules from Mexico
Granules of LLDPE copolymerized with 1-octene offer low specific gravity (<0.94) and high tensile strength, ideal for agricultural films in primary form. The ethylene and octene units comprise over 95% by weight. Precisely matches HTS 3901.40.00.00 criteria for alpha-olefin copolymers.

Import Tips
• Submit monomer analysis certificates confirming alpha-olefin type (e.g
• octene) and weight percentage
• Watch for specific gravity drift in storage; retest if humidity affects measurements
• Declare as primary form only; compounded products go to Chapter 39 plates/sheets
