High-Purity EtFOSE for Polymer Synthesis
>- High-purity EtFOSE is a refined grade of N-Ethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl) perfluorooctane sulphonamide intended for polymer synthesis. It is a separate chemically defined organic compound, and the added purity does not change its classification. It is therefore classifiable under tariff item 2935.30.00.
