Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If other polymer backsheets (EVA/PET)
Most backsheets are multilayer non-propylene; general 'other' subheading.
If insulating fittings of plastic
Finished solar electrical insulators shift to Chapter 85.
If plasticized for flexibility
US subheading note defines plasticizers; flexible backsheets may qualify.
