Overview
This classification, HTS Code 5505.10.00.60, encompasses "Other" waste, including noils, yarn waste, and garnetted stock, derived from man-made synthetic fibers. This category serves as a residual classification for synthetic fiber waste that does not fall under the more specific subheadings for nylon or polyester. Examples include waste materials from acrylic, modacrylic, or other synthetic polymer-based fibers.
To distinguish this category from its siblings, it is important to note that 5505.10.00.20 specifically covers waste of nylon or other polyamides, while 5505.10.00.40 is designated for waste of polyesters. Therefore, this "Other" category is for waste from any synthetic fiber that is *not* nylon, polyamide, or polyester. The defining characteristic remains the synthetic nature of the fiber material from which the waste originated.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under HTS Code 5505.10.00.60 is therefore determined by the exclusion of the waste from the specifically listed synthetic fiber types at this level. The physical form of the waste (e.g., noils, yarn waste, garnetted stock) is consistent across the 5505.10.00 umbrella, but the material composition of the synthetic fiber dictates its placement.
