The applicable subheading for the Liptol S-100 will be 3402.13.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, which provides for organic surface-active agents (other than soap); surface-active preparations, washing preparations (including auxiliary washing preparations) and cleaning preparations, whether or not containing soap, other than those of heading 3401: Organic surface-active agents, whether or not put for retail sale: Nonionic:... Other:... Fatty substance of animal or vegetable origin:... Polyethers. The rate of duty will be 1.3 cents per kg plus 4.3 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
