Import Tips & Compliance

Document anti-dusting agent composition (<1%) and safety purpose to qualify under Chapter 29

Ensure granules retain chemical identity; excessive processing risks Chapter 38 classification

Include Material Safety Data Sheets showing unchanged HBCD >97% purity

Hexabromocyclododecane Flame Retardant Powder

Pure hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) in powdered form used as a high-performance flame retardant additive for plastics and textiles. This chemically defined halogenated cyclic hydrocarbon falls under HTS 2903.89.70.10 as one of the 'other hexabromocyclododecanes' due to its brominated cyclododecane structure. It meets Chapter 29 note (a) for separate chemically defined organic compounds.

HBCD α-Isomer Flame Retardant

Alpha-isomer specific hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a stereoisomer used in eco-friendlier flame retardant formulations for electronics housing. Classified under 2903.89.70.10 as 'other HBCDs' per Chapter 29 note (b) for mixtures of isomers, though supplied as separated isomer of the brominated cyclododecane. Its halogenated cyclic hydrocarbon structure defines its placement.

Technical Grade HBCD Flakes

Technical-grade hexabromocyclododecane in flake form, containing isomers suitable for large-scale polymer flame retardancy. Falls under HTS 2903.89.70.10 as 'other hexabromocyclododecanes' per Chapter 29 note (b) allowing isomer mixtures of the same compound. The product's halogenated cyclododecane core structure dictates classification.

HBCD Stabilized for Transport

Hexabromocyclododecane with added anticaking stabilizer, packaged for safe bulk transport in plastic production.
