Products classified under HTS 2706.00.00.00

Coal Tar Pitch

A residue from the distillation of coal tar, primarily used in the production of electrodes for aluminum smelting and roofing materials. It falls under HTS 2706.00.00.00 as a partially distilled tar derived from coal, meeting the chapter's definition of coal tar products whether dehydrated or not.

Road Tar from Coal

Distilled coal tar specifically formulated for road surfacing and asphalt production, often partially dehydrated for stability. Classified under HTS 2706.00.00.00 as other mineral tars from coal, suitable for construction applications.

Lignite Tar

Tar obtained from the distillation of lignite, used in chemical manufacturing and as a binder in briquettes. It qualifies for HTS 2706.00.00.00 due to its origin from lignite, a mineral source, whether dehydrated or reconstituted.

Peat Tar

Tar distilled from peat, employed in specialty fuels and organic chemicals, often partially distilled for purity. Falls under HTS 2706.00.00.00 as specified for tars from peat and other minerals.

Reconstituted Coal Tar

Synthetic or reconstituted tar made from coal tar fractions, used in preservatives and disinfectants. Explicitly included in HTS 2706.00.00.00 for reconstituted tars from coal.

Coal Tar Creosote

A distillate fraction from coal tar used for wood preservation, with high boiling point components. Classified in HTS 2706.00.00.00 as undistilled or partially distilled coal tar product.

Mineral Tar for Waterproofing

Other mineral tars from lignite or peat, dehydrated for use in waterproofing compounds and paints. Covered by HTS 2706.00.00.00 for all forms including partially distilled.

Coal Tar Oil (Heavy)

Heavy undistilled oils from coal tar distillation, used in dye intermediates and resins. HTS 2706.00.00.00 applies to such tars not further separated into specific aromatics.

Lignite Tar Pitch

Pitch residue from lignite tar distillation, applied in carbon electrode manufacturing. Fits HTS 2706.00.00.00 as tar from lignite, partially distilled.
