Overview
This HTS classification, 2711.29.00.10, specifically covers propane when it is in a gaseous state and meets a minimum purity of 90 liquid volume percent. This distinction is crucial as it isolates a specific grade of propane intended for various industrial, commercial, and domestic uses where a certain level of purity is required. Examples include propane used as fuel for heating, cooking, and in specialized industrial processes, as well as for refrigerants where contamination would be detrimental.
Within the broader category of "Other" petroleum gases and gaseous hydrocarbons in a gaseous state, this subcategory differentiates itself from its sibling, 2711.29.00.15, which encompasses "Other" gaseous hydrocarbons not meeting the 90% minimum purity threshold for propane. Therefore, the primary classification criterion here is the precise purity specification of the propane gas.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification ends with the specific identification of high-purity propane in its gaseous state.
