Alternative Classifications

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

3911.90Lower: 16.5% vs 41.1%

If non-hydrogenated C9 aromatic type predominates

Hydrogenation doesn't change heading but specific types separate within 3911.90.

3907.30.00.00Same rate: 41.1%

If aromatic monomer content exceeds 95% by weight

High styrene content may classify as polystyrene derivatives in 3907 per subheading note (a).

3920.99Lower: 15.8% vs 41.1%

If pre-formed into plates, sheets, or profiles

Shaped non-primary forms move to 3920 as other plastic plates or sheets.
