Pharmaceutical Grade m-Xylene
Ultra-pure m-xylene at 99.5%+ purity from coal tar distillation, suitable for fine chemical intermediates. Meets HTS 2707.30.00.10 criteria with >50% m-xylene content. Employed in synthesis of pharmaceutical precursors and high-end perfumes.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If chemically synthesized for pharmaceutical applications
Pure synthetic m-xylene for pharma shifts to Chapter 29 as it is no longer a coal tar distillate.
If primarily benzene content
Coal tar oils with >50% benzene are under benzol subheading, not xylenes.
If further processed into synthetic odoriferous substances
Mixtures for perfumery or toiletry use move to Chapter 33.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming USP/EP grade purity to support classification
• Comply with FDA import alerts for chemical intermediates; declare end-use if for drug manufacturing
• Use temperature-controlled shipping to maintain stability; volatility can cause measurement discrepancies

Industrial Grade m-Xylene 99% Purity
High-purity m-xylene (meta-xylene) with over 99% concentration by weight, derived from high-temperature coal tar distillation. Classified under HTS 2707.30.00.10 because it contains more than 50% m-xylene by weight, meeting the subheading note for xylenes. Primarily used as a solvent in paints, coatings, and chemical synthesis.
Technical Grade m-Xylene Solvent
Technical-grade m-xylene containing 95-98% m-xylene by weight, sourced from coal tar oils. Falls under 2707.30.00.10 due to exceeding 50% m-xylene threshold as per subheading definitions. Used in adhesive manufacturing and as a diluent in resins.
