Boiled Linseed Oil from Germany
Boiled linseed oil is produced by heating and oxidizing linseed oil to accelerate its drying properties, making it suitable for wood finishes and protective coatings. It is a chemically modified vegetable oil, as the heating and oxidation alter its chemical structure. This places it under tariff item 1518.00.00, which covers oils that are oxidized or otherwise chemically modified.
