Notes.
I.- Goods put up in sets consisting of two or more separate constituents, someor all of which fall in this Section and are intended to be mixed together toobtain a product of Section VI or VII, are to be classified in the headingappropriate to that product, provided that the constituents are:
(a) having regard to the manner in which they are put up, clearlyindentifiable as being intended to be used together without first beingrepacked;
(b) presented together; and
(c) identifiable, whether by their nature or by the relative proportions inwhich they are present, as being complementary one to another.
2.- Except for the goods of heading No. 39.18 or 39.19, plastics, rubber, andarticles thereof, printed with motifs, characters or pictorial representations,which are not merely incidental to the primary use of the goods, fall inChapter 49.
CHAPTER 39
Plastics and articles thereof
Notes.
1.- Throughout the Nomenclature the expression "plastics" means thosematerials of headings Nos. 39.01 to 39.14 which are or have been capable,either at the moment of polymerisation or at some subsequent stage, ofbeing formed under external influence (usually heat and pressure, ifnecessary with a solvent or plasticiser) by moulding, casting, extruding,rolling or other process into shapes which are retained on the removal of theexternal influence.
Throughout the Nomenclature any reference to "plastics" alsoincludes vulcanised fibre. The expression, however, does not apply tomaterials regarded as textile materials of Section XI.
2.- This Chapter does not cover:
(a) Waxes of heading No. 27.12 or 34.04;

4.- For the purposes of this Chapter, except where the context otherwiserequires , copolymers (including co-polycondensates, co-polyaddition pro-ducts, block copolymers and graft copolymers) and polymer blends are tobe classified in the heading covering polymers of that comonomer which
175
predominates by weight over every other single comonomer, ..:omonomerswhose polymers fall in the same heading being regarded as constituting asingle comonomer.
If no single comonomer predominates , copolymers or polymer blends,as the case may be, are to be classified in the heading which occurs last innumerical order among those which equally merit consideration.
The expression "copolymers" covers all polymers in which no singlemonomer contributes 95% or more by weight to the total polymer content.
5.- Chemically modified polymers , that is those in which only appendages tothe main polymer chain have been changed by chemical reaction , are to beclassified in the heading appropriate to the unmodified polymer. Thisprovision does not apply to graft copolymers.
6.- In headings Nos. 39 . 01 to 39 . 14, the expression "primary forms" appliesonly to the following forms:

Thisexpression also includes sausage casings and other lay-flat tubing . However,except for the last- mentioned , those having an internal cross-section otherthan round, oval, rectangular (in which the length does not exceed 1.5 timesthe width) or in the shape of a regular polygon are not to be regarded astubes, pipes and hoses but as profile shapes.
9.- For the purposes of heading No. 39 . 18, the expression "wall or ceilingcoverings of plastics" applies to products in rolls, of a width not less than 45cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration , consisting of plastics fixedpermanently on a backing of any material other than paper, the plasticlayer (on the face side ) being grained, embossed, coloured , design - printedor otherwise decorated.
10.- In headings Nos. 39 . 20 and 39.21, the expression "plates , sheets, film, foiland strip" applies only to plates , sheets, film, foil and strip (other than thoseof Chapter 54) and to blocks of regular geometric shape , whether or notprinted or otherwise surface -worked, uncut or cut into rectangles (includingsquares) but not further worked (even if when so cut, they become articlesready for use).
176
11.- Heading No. 39.25 applies only to the following articles, not beingproducts covered by any of the earlier headings of sub-Chapter 11:

Subheading Note.
1.- Within any one heading of this Chapter, copolymers (including co-polycondensates, co-polyaddition products, block copolymers and graftcopolymers) are to be classified in the same subheading as homopolymersof the predominant comonomer and chemically modified polymers of thekind specified in Chapter Note 5 are to be classified in the same subheadingas the unmodified polymer, provided that such copolymers or chemicallymodified polymers are not more specifically covered by any othersubheading and that there is no residual subheading named "Other" in theseries of subheadings concerned. Polymer blends are to be classified in thesame subheading as copolymers (or homopolymers, as the case may be) ofthe same monomers in the same proportions.

(a) Liquids and pastes (including latex, whether or not pre-vulcanised, andother dispersions and solutions);
(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, bales, powders,, granules, crumbs andsimilar bulk forms.
4.- In Note 1 to this Chapter and in heading No. 40.02, the expression"synthetic rubber" applies to:
(a) Unsaturated synthetic substances which can be irreversibly transformedby vulcanisation with sulphur into non-thermoplastic substances which,at a temperature between 18°C and 29°C, will not break on beingextended to three times their original length and will return, after beingextended to twice their original length, within a period of five minutes,to a length not greater than one and a half times their original length.For the purposes of this test, substances necessary for the cross-linking,such as vulcanising activators or accelerators, may be added; thepresence of substances as provided for by Note 5 (b)(ii) and (iii) is alsopermitted. However, the presence of any substances not necessary forthe cross-linking, such as extenders, plasticisers and fillers, is notpermitted;
(b) Thioplasts (TM); and
(c) Natural rubber modified by grafting or mixing with plastics, depolymer-ised natural rubber, mixtures of unsaturated synthetic substances with
185
saturated synthetic high polymers provided that all the above-mentioned products comply with the requirements concerning vulcani-sation, elongation and recovery in (a) above.
5.- (a) Headings Nos. 40.01 and 40.02 do not apply to any rubber or mixture ofrubbers which has been compounded, before or after coagulation, with:
(i) vulcanising agents, accelerators, retarders or activators (other thanthose added for the preparation of pre-vulcanised rubber latex);
(ii) pigments or other colouring matter, other than those added solelyfor the purpose of identification;
(iii) plasticisers or extenders (except mineral oil in the case of oil-extended rubber), fillers, reinforcing agents, organic solvents or anyother substances, except those permitted under (b);
(b) The presence of the following substances in any rubber or mixture ofrubbers shall not affect its classification in heading No. 40.01 for 40.02,as the case may be, provided that such rubber or mixture of rubbersretains its essential character as a raw material:
(i) emulsifiers or anti-tack agents;
(ii) small amounts of breakdown products of emulsifiers;
(iii) very small amounts of the following : heat-sensitive agents (gener-ally for obtaining thermosensitive rubber latexes), cationic surface-active agents (generally for obtaining electro -positive rubberlatexes), antioxidants , coagulants, crumbling agents, freeze-resist-ing agents, peptisers, preservatives , stabilisers , viscosity-controlagents, or similar special-purpose additives.
6.- For the purposes of heading No. 40.04, the expression "waste, parings andscrap" means rubber waste , parings and scrap from the manufacture orworking of rubber and rubber goods definitely not usable as such becauseof cutting-up, wear or other reasons.
7.- Thread wholly of vulcanised rubber, of which any cross-sectional dimen-sion exceeds 5 mm, is to be classified as strip, rods or profile . shapes, ofheading No. 40.08.
8.- Heading No. 40.10 includes conveyor or transmission belts or belting oftextile fabric impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with rubber ormade from textile yam or cord impregnated, coated, covered or sheathedwith rubber.

Subheading Notes.
1.- In this Section and, where applicable, throughout the Nomenclature, thefollowing expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:
(a) Elastomeric yarn
Filament yam, including monofilament, of synthetic textile material,other than textured yarn, which does not break on being extended tothree times its original length and which returns, after being extended totwice its original length; within a period of five -minutes, to a length notgreater than one and a half times it original length.
(b) Unbleached yam
Yarn which:
(i) has the natural colour of its constituent fibres and has not beenbleached, dyed (whether or not in the mass) or printed; or
(ii) is of indeterminate colour ("grey yam"), manufactured fromgametted stock.
Such yarn may have been treated with a colourless dressing or fugitivedye (which disappears after simple washing with soap) and, in the caseof man-made fibres, treated in the mass with delustring agents (forexample, titanium dioxide).
(c) Bleached yarn
Yam which:
(i) has undergone a bleaching process, is made of bleached fibres or,unless the context otherwise requires, has been dyed white(whether or not in the mass) or treated with a white dressing;
(ii) consists of a mixture of unbleached and bleached fibres; or
(iii) is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached andbleached yams.
234
(d) Coloured (dyed or printed) yarn
Yam which:
(i) is dyed (whether or not in the mass) other than white or in afugitive colour, or printed, or made from dyed or printed fibres;
(ii) consists of a mixture of dyed fibres of different colours or of amixture of unbleached or bleached fibres with coloured fibres(marl or mixture yams), or is printed in one or more colours atintervals to give the impression of dots;
(iii) is obtained from slivers or rovings which have been printed; or
(iv) is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached orbleached yarn and coloured yam.
The above definitions also apply, mutatis mutandis, to monofilamentand to strip or the like of Chapter 54.
(e) Unbleached woven fabric
Woven fabric made from unbleached yam and which has not beenbleached, dyed or printed. Such fabric may have been treated with acolourless dressing or a fugitive dye.
(f) Bleached woven fabric
Woven fabric which:
(i) has been bleached or, unless the context otherwise requires, dyedwhite or treated with a white dressing, in the piece;
(ii) consists of bleached yam; or
(iii) consists of unbleached and bleached yam.
(g) Dyed woven fabric
Woven fabric which:
(i) is dyed a single uniform colour other than white (unless the contextotherwise requires) or has been treated with a coloured finish otherthan white (unless the context otherwise requires), in the piece; or
(ii) consists of coloured yam of a single uniform colour.
(h) Woven fabric of yarns of different colours
Woven fabric (other than printed woven fabric) which:
(i) consists of yams of different colours or yams of different shades of
the same colour (other than the natural colour of the constituentfibres);
(ii) consists of unbleached or bleached yam and coloured yam; or
(iii) consists of marl or mixture yams.
(In all cases, the yarn used in selvedges and piece ends is not taken intoconsideration.)
235
(ij) Printed woven fabric
Woven fabric which has been printed in the piece, whether or not madefrom yarns of different colours.
(The following are also regarded as printed woven fabrics: wovenfabrics bearing designs made, for example, with a brush or spray gun, bymeans of transfer paper, by flocking or by the batik process.)
The process of mercerisation does not affect the classification of yarns orfabrics within the above categories.
(k) Plain weave
A fabric construction in which each yarn of the weft passes alternatelyover and under successive yarns of the warp and each yarn of the warppasses alternately over and under successive yams of the weft.
2.- (A) Products of Chapters 56 to 63 containing two or more textile materialsare to be regarded as consisting wholly of that textile material whichwould be selected under Note 2 to this Section for the classification of aproduct of Chapters 50 to 55 consisting of the same textile materials.
(B) For the application of this rule:
(a) where appropriate, only the part which determines the classifica-tion under Interpretative Rule 3 shall be taken into account;
(b) in the case of textile products consisting of a ground fabric and apile or looped surface no account shall be taken of the groundfabric;
(c) in the case of embroidery of heading No. 58.10 only the groundfabric shall be taken into account. However, embroidery withoutvisible ground shall be classified with reference to the embroider-ing threads alone.
