Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If acrylic monomer predominates
Acrylic polymers classified by dominant acrylic units per subheading rules
If high polyester content
Polyester copolymer with >50% units goes to 3907 series
If complex multi-polymer blend
Preparations not fitting single polymer rules classify as chemical mixtures
