Alternative Classifications

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

3903.90.10Higher: 41.5% vs 28.9%

If chemically modified polystyrene not specific to ion-exchange

Per note (a)(3), chemically modified polymers without specific ion-exchange use go to 'Other' in 3903 series.

3910.00.00Higher: 38% vs 28.9%

If silicone-modified for specific industrial membranes

Silicones predominate, shifting to heading 3910 regardless of ion-exchange function.

8421.99.01Higher: 35% vs 28.9%

If pre-packed in industrial filter housings

Parts of water purification machinery under 8421 supersede primary polymer heading.
