Distilled Dicyclopentadiene from Byproduct Streams from Japan
DCPD recovered and purified from C5 petroleum byproduct streams via distillation, classified as a chemically defined cyclic hydrocarbon under HTS 2902.19.00.10. This industrial-grade material serves as the primary feedstock for hydrocarbon resins.

Import Tips
• Provide distillation process flow diagrams to prove separation from acyclic impurities
• Ensure bromide number tests confirm cyclene structure vs. acyclic hydrocarbons
• Avoid bulk import without origin certificates if from mixed petroleum sources
