Products classified under HTS 2903.19.10.00
Hexachloroethane (C2Cl6)
Hexachloroethane is a saturated chlorinated derivative of acyclic hydrocarbons, specifically a fully chlorinated ethane compound falling under HTS 2903.19.10.00 due to its chemical structure as C2Cl6. It is commonly used in pyrotechnics, degassing metals, and as a chemical intermediate.
1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane (R-130)
1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane is a colorless liquid saturated chlorinated derivative of acyclic ethane, classified under HTS 2903.19.10.00 as one of the specifically named compounds. It serves as a solvent, chemical intermediate, and in organic synthesis.
Hexachloroethane 98% Technical Grade
Technical grade hexachloroethane at 98% purity is a saturated chlorinated acyclic hydrocarbon explicitly covered by HTS 2903.19.10.00, meeting Chapter 29 note (a) for chemically defined compounds with impurities. Used primarily in aluminum and steel degassing processes.
Symmetrical Tetrachloroethane (1,1,2,2-Isomer)
Symmetrical 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane is the specifically named isomer under HTS 2903.19.10.00, a saturated chlorinated derivative of acyclic hydrocarbons used in chemical manufacturing and as a dry cleaning solvent intermediate.
Hexachloroethane Degassing Tablets
Hexachloroethane compressed into degassing tablets remains classified under HTS 2903.19.10.00 as the pure chemically defined compound per Chapter 29 notes, not as a finished preparation. Used in foundry applications to remove hydrogen from molten metals.
Tetrachloroethane Solvent Grade
High-purity 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane solvent grade meets HTS 2903.19.10.00 as a saturated chlorinated acyclic hydrocarbon, used in extraction processes and organic synthesis where its non-flammable properties are essential.
