Products classified under HTS 2902.43.00.00

p-Xylene (Para-Xylene)

p-Xylene is a colorless, flammable liquid aromatic hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C6H4(CH3)2, classified under HTS 2902.43.00.00 as a specific xylene isomer within cyclic hydrocarbons. It is primarily used as a feedstock in the production of purified terephthalic acid (PTA) for polyester fibers and resins.

99.9% Pure p-Xylene

High-purity p-Xylene (99.9%) meeting industrial specifications for PTA production, classified as the chemically defined compound under HTS 2902.43.00.00. This isomer is separated from o- and m-xylene via adsorption processes.

Industrial Grade p-Xylene

Technical grade p-Xylene for chemical synthesis and polymer manufacturing, a separate chemically defined organic compound per Chapter 29 note (a), under HTS 2902.43.00.00. Typically contains minimal impurities (<0.5%).

Polymer-Grade p-Xylene

Ultra-high purity p-Xylene (>99.95%) specifically refined for terephthalic acid production in polyester fiber manufacturing, classified under HTS 2902.43.00.00 as pure cyclic hydrocarbon. Meets ASTM D841 specifications.

p-Xylene with Stabilizer

p-Xylene containing polymerization inhibitor (e.g., 10 ppm t-butylcatechol) necessary for safe transport, still classified as the base compound under HTS 2902.43.00.00 per Chapter 29 note (f). Used in chemical intermediate production.
