Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pure PVC without plasticizers or copolymers
Unplasticized PVC homopolymers without additives classify under poly(vinyl chloride) not elsewhere specified.
If chemically modified beyond simple plasticization
Heavily modified polymers not covered specifically go to 'Other' chemical preparations per subheading note (a)(3).
If predominantly polyacetal or other olefin copolymer
If comonomer units from other olefins predominate, classification follows predominant monomer rule in subheading notes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit detailed formulation sheets showing plasticizer type and percentage; use ISO-certified labs for verification
• Pitfall: Powder mistaken for finished pigment masterbatch (3206)
• Declare as primary form only
