Subheadings
Products classified under Tariff item 2905.45
Bio-Based Glycerol 99.9% Pure
Bio-based glycerol, refined to 99.9% purity from biodiesel byproduct, is chemically identical to synthetic glycerol. As a separate chemically defined organic compound, it falls under tariff item 2905.45.00 for glycerol, regardless of its biological origin.
2905.45.00Glycerol Aqueous Solution 85%
An 85% glycerol aqueous solution, where water is added for safe transport and preservation, is classified under this item per Chapter 29 Note 1(d). The solution is a normal method of putting up glycerol and does not make it suitable for a specific use.
2905.45.00Glycerol Pharmaceutical Grade PhEur
Pharmaceutical-grade glycerol, compliant with the European Pharmacopoeia, is a highly refined form of glycerol used in medicinal products. As a chemically pure polyhydric alcohol, it is classified under tariff item 2905.45.00, with its pharmaceutical application not affecting its tariff classification.
2905.45.00Glycerol with 0.2% Stabilizer
Glycerol with 0.2% stabilizer added for preservation during transport is classified under this item per Chapter 29 Note 1(f). The stabilizer is necessary for preservation and does not render the product suitable for a specific use, maintaining its identity as glycerol.
2905.45.00Industrial Glycerol 99.5% Technical Grade
Technical-grade glycerol at 99.5% purity is used in industrial applications such as antifreeze and resins. It is a separate chemically defined organic compound, and its technical grade does not exclude it from tariff item 2905.45.00, provided any impurities or stabilizers are within Chapter 29 allowances.
2905.45.00Kosher Vegetable Glycerol FG Grade
Kosher-certified, food-grade glycerol derived from palm oil is used in confectionery and beverages. Its certification and vegetable origin do not affect its classification as glycerol under tariff item 2905.45.00, as it is a chemically defined polyhydric alcohol.
2905.45.00Refined Glycerol USP Grade
Refined glycerol, purified to USP standards, is used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food. It is a chemically defined polyhydric alcohol that falls under tariff item 2905.45.00, with its USP grade confirming high purity but not altering its classification.
2905.45.00Vegetable Glycerin 99.7% Pure
Vegetable glycerin at 99.7% purity, derived from vegetable oils, is used in vaping liquids, food preservation, and personal care. As a polyhydric acyclic alcohol, it is classified under tariff item 2905.45.00, and its vegetable origin does not change its chemical identity as glycerol.
