Products classified under HTS 3907.70.00.00
Ingeo Biopolymer 4032D Poly(Lactic Acid) Resin
Ingeo 4032D is a translucent extruded poly(lactic acid) resin pelletized for film and sheet applications, derived from renewable resources like corn starch. It meets the HTS 3907.70.00.00 classification as poly(lactic acid) in primary form, where the lactic acid monomer units constitute 95% or more by weight of the polymer content per subheading note (a)(1). Primarily used for packaging films and thermoformed containers.
NatureWorks PLA 2003D Extrusion Grade Pellets
PLA 2003D is a general-purpose poly(lactic acid) grade optimized for blown film and profile extrusion, supplied in pellet form from fermented plant sugars. Classified under HTS 3907.70.00.00 as primary poly(lactic acid) meeting the 95% monomer purity rule. Ideal for flexible packaging and agricultural films.
Total Corbion PLA 3052D Injection Molding Resin
PLA 3052D is a high-flow poly(lactic acid) resin designed for injection molding of durable goods, pelletized and confirmed as >95% polylactide content.
