Overview
This classification, HTS Code 9902.10.84, specifically covers the copolymer poly(1,1-difluoroethene-co-1-chloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethene-co -1,1,2-trifluoroethene), identified by CAS No. 81197-12-8. It is important to note that this is a temporary classification provision, indicated by its placement within Chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. This chapter is reserved for temporary legislation and modifications, often related to trade agreements or specific import restrictions.
While other categories within the HTS system, such as those for primary plastics (e.g., Chapter 39), would classify this material based on its polymer type, this specific entry in Chapter 99 signifies a special circumstance. The parenthetical reference to subheading 3904.69.50 indicates that the underlying material would typically fall under a general classification for fluoropolymers. However, its inclusion here denotes a distinct, temporary tariff treatment or restriction that overrides the standard classification.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within HTS Code 9902.10.84. Therefore, classification under this code is definitive for the specified fluoropolymer. When encountering this HTS code, it is crucial to consult the specific legislation or proclamation that established this temporary provision to understand the full scope of its application, including any specific quantitative limitations, reporting requirements, or preferential tariff rates that may apply, distinct from the general classification of fluoropolymers.
