Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If vulcanized
Vulcanized synthetic rubber in primary forms falls under 4005, as it no longer meets the uncompounded criteria of 4001-4002.
If containing waste or scrap
Mixtures with rubber waste, parings, or scrap from manufacturing are classified in 4004 regardless of primary form.
