Ethylene Dibromide (1,2-Dibromoethane)
Pure ethylene dibromide, also known as 1,2-dibromoethane (ISO), is a halogenated derivative of an acyclic hydrocarbon consisting of ethane with two bromine atoms attached to adjacent carbons. It falls under HTS 2903.62.10.00 as a specifically named brominated acyclic hydrocarbon. This colorless liquid is primarily used as a fumigant, solvent, and chemical intermediate.
Technical Grade Ethylene Dibromide 98%
Technical grade ethylene dibromide at 98% purity (1,2-dibromoethane) remains classified as the specific compound under HTS 2903.62.10.00 despite minor impurities, per Chapter 29 notes allowing impurities. Used mainly in industrial fumigation and as a gasoline additive scavenger. Meets ISO standards for chemical identity.
Ethylene Dibromide Stabilized Solution
Ethylene dibromide (1,2-dibromoethane) with added stabilizers for safe transport, classified under HTS 2903.62.10.00 per Chapter 29 note 1(f) allowing stabilizers necessary for preservation. The solvent/additive does not render it suitable for specific use beyond general chemical applications. Commonly used in leaded gasoline scavenging.
Pharma-Grade 1,2-Dibromoethane
Pharmaceutical grade ethylene dibromide (99.5%+ purity) used as a synthetic intermediate for organic compounds, classified specifically under HTS 2903.62.10.00. Meets USP/EP standards for trace impurities. The pure chemical identity prevails over pharmaceutical end-use.
