Copper foil (whether or not printed or backed with paper, paperboard, plastics or similar backing materials) of a thickness (excluding any backing) not exceeding 0.15mm
In plain English
This category includes copper foil that is either plain or printed, and may be attached to paper, cardboard, plastic, or similar materials. The items are defined by having a total thickness of 0.15mm or less, not counting the weight of any backing material. The classification separates these goods based on whether they have a backing layer and whether they are made from pure copper or copper alloys.
