This material displays the stretching and recovery properties of elastomers but cannot be vulcanised with sulphur. In order to cross-link, this copolymer requires basic compounds or certain peroxides.

3904 69 90

The classification is determined by the provisions of General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Notes 1, 4 and 6 to Chapter 39, Note 4(a) to Chapter 40, subheading Note 1 to Chapter 39 and the wording of CN codes 3904 , 3904 69 and 3904 69 90 .

Vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene copolymer does not comply with the definition of synthetic rubbers contained in Note 4(a) to Chapter 40 since it cannot be vulcanised with sulphur.

Poly (vinylidene fluoride) is a polymer belonging to Chapter 39 (see the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes (HS EN), General Notes to Chapter 39, list of abbreviations of polymers and Notes relating to heading 3904 , last paragraph).

A vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene copolymer in primary form is a fluorinated copolymer to be classified in Chapter 39 under CN code 3904 69 90 , according to Notes 1, 4 and 6 to Chapter 39 and subheading Note 1 to Chapter 39.

2.

Fluoroelastomer O-ring seals (vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene copolymer).

The constituent material of this product (vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene copolymer) displays the stretching and recovery properties of elastomers, but cannot be vulcanised with sulphur. In order to cross-link, it requires basic compounds or certain peroxides.

3926 90 97

Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Notes 1 and 4 to Chapter 39, Note 4(a) to Chapter 40, Note 2 to Section XVI, Note 2 to Chapter 90 and the wording of CN codes 3926 , 3926 90 and 3926 90 97 .

This product is an elastomeric seal for general use. Therefore it is not a recognizable part of a machine in the meaning of Note 2 to Section XVI and Note 2 to Chapter 90 of the CN, and consequently excluded from Section XVI and Chapter 90.

The constituent material of this product does not comply with the definition of synthetic rubbers contained in Note 4(a) to Chapter 40, since it cannot be vulcanised with sulphur.

Poly (vinylidene fluoride) is a polymer belonging to Chapter 39 (see the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes (HS EN), General Notes to Chapter 39, list of abbreviations of polymers and Notes relating to heading 3904 , last paragraph).

Vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene copolymer is a fluorinated copolymer which should be classified in Chapter 39.

Consequently, the product in question is a plastic product belonging to Chapter 39 and not specified or included elsewhere in the combined nomenclature, and should therefore be classified under CN code 3926 90 97 .

COMMISSION DECISION

of 8 July 2009

amending Decision 2008/820/EC as regards extension of the temporary derogation from the rules of origin laid down in Annex II to Council Regulation (EC) No 1528/2007 to take account of the special situation of Swaziland with regard to core spun yarn

(notified under document number C(2009) 5310)

(2009/529/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1528/2007 of 20 December 2007 applying the arrangements for products originating in certain states which are part of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States provided for in agreements establishing, or leading to the establishment of, Economic Partnership Agreements (1), and in particular Article 36(4) of Annex II thereto,

Whereas:

| (1) | On 27 October 2008 Commission Decision 2008/820/EC (2) was adopted granting a temporary derogation from the rules of origin laid down in Annex II to Council Regulation (EC) No 1528/2007 to take account of the special situation of Swaziland with regard to core spun yarn. On 2 February 2009 Swaziland requested in accordance with Article 36 of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1528/2007 a new derogation from the rules of origin set out in that Annex. According to the information received from Swaziland, it is still unable to satisfy the rules on cumulation of origin laid down in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1528/2007 since it needs to source non-originating poly fibres in South Africa for the manufacture of the final product. Hence, the final product does not comply with the rules laid down in that Annex. Given that Swaziland needs more time to prepare itself to comply with the rules of origin, a new derogation should be granted with effect from 1 January 2009. |
