Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for polypropylene-based capacitors
Different polymer base (PP >95%) falls under poly(propylene) subheading per note (a)(1).
If slit and treated for direct capacitor assembly
Special processing into capacitor-ready sheets moves to 'other sheets' in 3921.
If imported as finished electrical capacitor component
Electrical function dominates if assembled, classifying under Chapter 85 electrical machinery.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide dielectric specs and metallization pattern details; purity certs critical for 95% PET threshold
• Classify as film only if not pre-wound on cores; wound capacitors may go to 3926 or 8532
• Watch for 'chemically modified' claims; unmodified PET stays here per note (b)(2)
