Products classified under HTS 2903.12.00.00
Dichloromethane ACS Reagent Grade
High-purity dichloromethane (methylene chloride) meeting ACS standards for laboratory use in chemical analysis and synthesis. This saturated chlorinated derivative of methane falls under HTS 2903.12.00.00 as a separate chemically defined organic compound. Commonly used as a solvent in organic chemistry experiments.
Dichloromethane Pharmaceutical Grade USP
Ultra-pure methylene chloride meeting USP standards for use as an extraction solvent in pharmaceutical manufacturing. This chemically defined saturated chlorinated hydrocarbon is classified in HTS 2903.12.00.00. Essential for isolating active pharmaceutical ingredients.
Technical Grade Methylene Chloride 99%
Industrial-grade dichloromethane with 99% purity for use in foam blowing, adhesives, and polymer processing. As a separate chemically defined organic compound per Chapter 29 note (a), it falls under HTS 2903.12.00.00. Bulk packaged for manufacturing applications.
Methylene Chloride Foam Blowing Agent
High-purity dichloromethane used as auxiliary blowing agent in polyurethane foam production. Meets Chapter 29 criteria as a separate chemically defined compound under HTS 2903.12.00.00. Supplied in ISO tank containers for industrial injection systems.
Stabilized Dichloromethane Industrial
Dichloromethane with minimal cyclopentane stabilizer (<0.1%) for corrosion prevention during storage and transport. Still classified as pure compound under HTS 2903.12.00.00 per Chapter 29 note (f) when stabilizer is necessary for preservation. Used in metal cleaning applications.
Methylene Chloride Paint Stripper
Industrial solvent formulated primarily with dichloromethane for removing paint, varnish, and coatings from surfaces. Classified under HTS 2903.12.00.00 when imported as the pure compound without rendering it suitable for specific retail use. Used in professional refinishing and restoration applications.
Dichloromethane Extraction Solvent
Laboratory solvent specifically packaged for liquid-liquid extraction in organic chemistry and natural product isolation. Pure dichloromethane qualifies under HTS 2903.12.00.00 as a halogenated acyclic hydrocarbon derivative. Supplied in amber glass bottles to prevent light degradation.
