Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymers
Named copolymers classify specifically when meeting 95% comonomer threshold.
If expanded into rigid cellular plates
Post-expansion cellular sheets are finished articles under 3921, not primary polymers.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Comply with TSCA regulations for HBCD content; declare flame retardant additives separately
• Provide formulation data ensuring polystyrene remains >95% monomer content despite additives
