Related Products under Tariff item 2933.37.00
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone Ethanol Solution (10%)
A 10% solution of N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) in ethanol, where the ethanol serves as a necessary transport solvent. Under Chapter 29 Note 1(e), solutions in other solvents are classified with the compound if the solvent is required for safety or transport and does not make the product suitable for a specific use. Thus, it falls under tariff item 2933.37.00.
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) Pure Chemical
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) is a heterocyclic organic compound featuring an unfused piperidone ring (a hydrogenated pyridine derivative) with a phenethyl substituent at the nitrogen atom. It is a separate chemically defined compound, which qualifies it for classification under Chapter 29, specifically tariff item 2933.37.00.
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone with Anti-Dusting Agent
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) powder treated with a silica anti-dusting agent (less than 0.5%) for safe handling and identification. The addition of the anti-dusting agent is permitted under Chapter 29 Note 1(g) as it does not render the product particularly suitable for a specific use, so it retains classification as a separate chemically defined compound under tariff item 2933.37.00.
NPP Laboratory Research Grade (>99%)
High-purity N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) (>99%) packaged for laboratory research use. Classification under tariff item 2933.37.00 is based on the chemical identity of the compound, not its end use. It is a separate chemically defined heterocyclic compound with a piperidone ring.
NPP Stabilized with Antioxidant
N-Phenethyl-4-piperidone (NPP) with added BHT stabilizer to prevent oxidation during storage and transport. The stabilizer is permitted under Chapter 29 Note 1(f) as necessary for preservation, and the product remains a separate chemically defined compound, classifiable under tariff item 2933.37.00.
