Import Tips & Compliance
• Include crystallization process documentation proving separation from mixed xylenes for Chapter 29 purity
• Pre-register with US EPA if destined for facilities requiring TSCA import certification
• Use nitrogen blanketing during storage/transport to prevent oxidation/peroxide formation

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%).
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.
