Interpretation of HSN explanatory notes determined that ethylbenzene is not an isomer of xylene and therefore its weight cannot be aggregated with dimethylbenzenes to meet the 95% threshold for classification under Chapter 29.02; consequence: product properly classifiable under tariff entry 2707 30 00. On limitation and penalty, the appellant's bona fide classification under subheading 29024400 precluded a finding of suppression or intent to evade duty, so invocation of the extended period of limitation was unsustainable while demand for the normal limitation period with interest was confirmed and penalty under section 11AC was set aside.
