PET Chips IV 0.80 dl/g for Strapping

Granular PET resin with intrinsic viscosity equivalent to 78 ml/g or higher, designed for producing plastic strapping bands used in packaging. The elevated viscosity provides the tensile strength required for industrial strapping applications. Falls under HTS 3907.61.00 as primary form PET meeting the viscosity threshold.

Alternative Classifications

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

3907Same rate: 41.5%

If lower viscosity grades

PET below 78 ml/g IV classified in the preceding subheading per the series hierarchy.

3907.91Lower: 16.5% vs 41.5%

If aromatic polyester copolymer dominates

Shifts to unsaturated polyallyl polyester esters if those units predominate per note (a)(4).

3920.62.00Lower: 39.2% vs 41.5%

If imported as finished strapping sheets

Extruded PET film/sheet in non-primary form moves to plates/sheets heading.

Import Tips & Compliance

Request melt flow index and IV test reports from manufacturer to substantiate high viscosity classification

Label shipments clearly as 'PET resin, viscosity 78+ ml/g' to prevent confusion with textile-grade PET

Check for copolymer content; blends may require predominant monomer analysis under chapter notes
