A lightweight plain weave fabric weighing under 170 g/m², dyed, containing less than 85% synthetic staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, with not more than 33 warp ends and filling picks per square centimeter. It qualifies as cheesecloth per statistical note (d) due to its loose open weave structure ideal for straining and filtering. Commonly used in culinary and medical applications for its breathability.

Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% synthetic staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, as misclassification to 5512 can occur
• Provide weave density documentation (≤33 ends/picks per cm²) and weight certificates to match cheesecloth definition in statistical notes
• Ensure dyeing process is uniform; uneven dyeing may lead to scrutiny under 'dyed' subheading
