Products classified under HTS 2707.99.55.00

Meta-Cresol 98% Pure Industrial Grade

Meta-cresol (m-cresol) with 98% purity by weight, derived from high-temperature coal tar distillation, used primarily in the production of resins, disinfectants, and herbicides. It falls under HTS 2707.99.55.00 because it is a phenolic compound from coal tar with aromatic constituents exceeding nonaromatic ones and meets the 75% purity threshold.

Ortho-Cresol 85% Purity Coal Tar Derived

Ortho-cresol (o-cresol) at 85% weight purity from coal tar distillation, commonly used in synthetic resins, wire enamels, and as an intermediate for herbicides. Classified under HTS 2707.99.55.00 due to its high purity and origin as a coal tar phenol where aromatics predominate.

Para-Cresol 92% High Purity Grade

Para-cresol (p-cresol) with 92% purity, obtained from coal tar, serving as a key raw material for antioxidants, fragrances, and pharmaceutical intermediates. It qualifies for HTS 2707.99.55.00 as a high-purity coal tar phenol with dominant aromatic content.

Metaparacresol 80% Purity Technical Grade

Metaparacresol, a mixture primarily of meta- and para-cresol isomers at 80% purity from coal tar, used in production of disinfectants and synthetic tanning agents. Falls under HTS 2707.99.55.00 for its specified high-purity phenolic composition from coal tar distillation.

Mixed Cresols 90% Purity (Ortho/Meta/Para)

Blended cresols (ortho, meta, para) at 90% total purity from high-temperature coal tar, applied in resin manufacturing and as wood preservatives. HTS 2707.99.55.00 applies to these high-purity coal tar phenols with aromatic dominance.

Orthocresol 99% Pharmaceutical Intermediate

High-purity orthocresol (99%) from coal tar distillation, used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis and antiseptics. Classified in HTS 2707.99.55.00 for coal tar phenols exceeding 75% purity.

Paracresol 75% Minimum Purity Bulk

Para-cresol at exactly 75% purity from coal tar, supplied in bulk for industrial use in fragrances and polymer production. Meets HTS 2707.99.55.00 criteria for threshold purity coal tar phenols.

Meta-Cresol 88% Resin Production Grade

Meta-cresol 88% pure, coal tar sourced for phenolic resin synthesis in adhesives and coatings. HTS 2707.99.55.00 covers this as a high-purity distillation product.
