p-Xylene (Para-Xylene) Industrial Solvent from Japan

High-purity p-xylene, containing more than 50% by weight of xylenes as per subheading 2707.30 notes, used primarily as a solvent in paints, coatings, and chemical manufacturing processes. It falls under HTS 2707.30.00.30 due to its derivation from high-temperature coal tar distillation and aromatic dominance over non-aromatic components. This specific isomer is key for industrial applications requiring precise solvency properties.

Import Tips

Verify product purity exceeds 50% xylenes by weight via lab analysis to meet subheading 2707.30 criteria; retain certificates for CBP review

Declare exact isomer (p-xylene) and source (coal tar or similar) on entry docs to avoid reclassification to petroleum oils under Chapter 27
