More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If extruded into finished tubes
Completed tubes/pipes are fittings, not primary polymers.
If PVDF-dominant blends
Polyvinylidene fluoride blends classify under other fluoropolymers.
If post-extrusion non-cellular sheets
Manufactured sheets shift from primary polymers.
