Import Tips & Compliance
• Specify isomer ratio (typically 80% 2,4,4-TMP-1/20% 2,4,4-TMP-2) in technical data sheet
• Stable at ambient temperatures; provide autoignition temperature (210°C) for fire safety
• Mixture of isomers still qualifies as 'separate chemically defined' per Chapter Note 1(b)

1-Octene
1-Octene (C8H16) is a linear alpha-olefin produced via ethylene oligomerization from petroleum feedstocks. Classified under HTS 2901.29.1050 as an 'other' petroleum-derived unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon used primarily in linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) production. Its terminal double bond distinguishes it from saturated paraffins.
Ethylidene Norbornene
Ethylidene norbornene (ENB) is a diene comonomer (C10H14) derived from petroleum DCPD streams. Despite bicyclic structure, classified under HTS 2901.29.1050 as petroleum-derived unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon per principal chain rule. Essential for EPDM rubber production providing vulcanization sites.
Isobutylene
Isobutylene (2-methylpropene, C4H8) is a branched unsaturated hydrocarbon from petroleum refinery C4 streams. HTS 2901.29.1050 applies as 'other' petroleum-derived acyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon, separated via extractive distillation. Primary use in butyl rubber and methacrylate production.
1-Hexene
1-Hexene is an acyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon with the formula C6H12, featuring a terminal double bond. It falls under HTS 2901.29.1050 as it is derived from petroleum through cracking processes and is not specifically enumerated elsewhere in the unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbons subheading. This chemical serves as a comonomer in polyethylene production.
1-Decene
1-Decene is a C10 alpha-olefin derived from petroleum via Ziegler process oligomerization. It qualifies for HTS 2901.29.1050 as a separate, chemically defined unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon from petroleum sources, used in synthetic lubricants and detergents. Polymer grade specifications ensure classification as pure compound.
4-Methyl-1-Pentene
4-Methyl-1-pentene is a branched alpha-olefin (C6H12) produced from petroleum raffinates. It falls under HTS 2901.29.1050 as an 'other' petroleum-derived unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon, distinct from straight-chain olefins. Used as comonomer in specialty polypropylenes and as chemical intermediate.
