Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) Beta Isomer
Beta-HCH is a persistent organochlorine pesticide byproduct from lindane production, derived from benzene via chlorination of cyclohexane. Classified under HTS 2903.89.11.00 due to its halogenated cyclanic structure from aromatic precursors and pesticide designation. Used historically in agriculture despite current restrictions.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If technical lindane containing mixed HCH isomers
Mixed isomer technical lindane has specific statistical suffix within same heading.
If when imported as chemical waste or for disposal
POPs waste streams classified as chemical preparations rather than pure compounds.
If primarily used as brominated flame retardant
Non-pesticide end-use shifts to brominated saturated acyclic hydrocarbons.
