Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3907Same rate: 40.8%

If contains significant alkyd resin content

Blends with alkyds or other polyesters classify under predominant monomer, shifting from pure polycarbonate per subheading note (b)(1).

2710.12Lower: 17% vs 40.8%

If dissolved in solvent as solution rather than solid primary form

Petroleum-derived polymer solutions fall under Chapter 27, not primary polymer forms in Chapter 39.

3907.91Lower: 16.5% vs 40.8%

If unsaturated polyester blend predominates

Note (a)(4) directs classification to the heading for the weight-predominant monomer unit in mixed polymer series.
