Products classified under HTS 3911.10.00.00
C5 Petroleum Resin PR-110
C5 Petroleum Resin PR-110 is a low molecular weight thermoplastic resin derived from petroleum byproducts, primarily C5 fractions from naphtha cracking. It is supplied in primary form as solid granules or flakes and falls under HTS 3911.10.00.00 as a petroleum resin used mainly as a tackifier in adhesives and hot-melt formulations.
Hydrogenated C9 Petroleum Resin HC-9100
Hydrogenated C9 Petroleum Resin HC-9100 is a highly stable, light-colored resin produced from C9 aromatic petroleum streams through hydrogenation. Imported in primary flake form, it qualifies under HTS 3911.10.00.00 for its petroleum resin composition, ideal for inks, coatings, and rubber compounding.
Coumarone-Indene Resin C90
Coumarone-Indene Resin C90 is a thermoplastic resin polymerized from coumarone and indene present in coal tar or petroleum fractions. Supplied in primary solid form, it is explicitly covered under HTS 3911.10.00.00 and serves as a binder in paints, varnishes, and printing inks.
Polyterpene Resin YS-100
Polyterpene Resin YS-100 is derived from polymerization of terpene monomers from wood rosin or pine resin. In primary flake or powder form, it meets HTS 3911.10.00.00 criteria as polyterpenes, commonly used as tackifiers in chewing gum bases and pressure-sensitive adhesives.
DCPD Petroleum Resin D-125
DCPD Petroleum Resin D-125 is a dicyclopentadiene-based resin from petroleum cracking byproducts, polymerized into primary form pellets. Classified under HTS 3902.10.00.00 but specifically as petroleum resin in 3911.10 when meeting composition rules, used in tire compounding and sealants.
Pentaerythritol Ester of Polyterpene Resin
This chemically modified polyterpene resin esterified with pentaerythritol offers improved polarity and adhesion. Still in primary form, it falls under HTS 3911.10.00.00 per subheading note (a)(3) as chemically modified 'other' polymer, used in hot-melt adhesives.
Aliphatic C5/C9 Copolymer Petroleum Resin
This copolymer resin combines C5 aliphatic and C9 aromatic petroleum streams, with C5 predominating by weight. Per subheading note (a)(4), it classifies in 3911.10.00.00 as petroleum resin in primary form, suitable for EVA-based adhesives.
Indene-Coumarone Resin for Ink
Specialty indene-coumarone resin formulated for lithographic inks, supplied in primary prill form. Explicitly named in HTS 3911.10.00.00, providing gloss and pigment dispersion properties essential for printing applications.
β-Pinene Polyterpene Resin
Polymerized from β-pinene extracted from turpentine, this pale resin in primary powder form is covered by HTS 3911.10.00.00 as polyterpenes. Excellent for overprint varnishes and paper adhesives due to high tack.
Hydrocarbon Petroleum Resin Necor 100
Necor 100 is a fully aliphatic C5 petroleum resin designed for rubber-tire applications, imported as primary granules. Meets HTS 3911.10.00.00 petroleum resin definition with balanced tack and cohesion properties.
