Industrial Allyl Alcohol Technical Grade
Technical grade allyl alcohol (95-98% purity) serves as a raw material for resins, plasticizers, and herbicides. Classified under HTS 2905.29.10.00 as it meets the definition of allyl alcohol, an unsaturated monohydric acyclic alcohol, with allowable impurities not changing its chemical identity per Chapter Note (a).

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If other unsaturated monohydric like 2-buten-1-ol
2905.29.20 covers other unsaturated alcohols; 2905.29.10.00 specifically enumerates allyl alcohol by name.
If dissolved in hydrocarbon solvents for transport
Solutions in non-water solvents only stay in Chapter 29 if solely for safety/transport per Note (e); others go to Chapter 27.
If pesticide intermediate with specific herbicides
Herbicide-use formulations may fall under Chapter 38; pure intermediate chemical remains in 2905.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide assay report confirming allyl alcohol content >95% to distinguish from mixtures in Chapter 38
• Ensure packaging complies with UN 1098 hazardous material regulations for proper import declaration
• Check for anti-dusting agents; if added beyond identification/safety per Note (g), may reclassify as preparation

Allyl Alcohol 99% Pure
Allyl alcohol (CAS 107-18-6) is an unsaturated monohydric acyclic alcohol used primarily as a chemical intermediate in the production of glycerol and pharmaceuticals. It falls under HTS 2905.29.10.00 as a separate chemically defined organic compound that is an unsaturated monohydric alcohol, specifically allyl alcohol. This classification applies to the pure substance without impurities affecting its chemical definition.
Pharma-Grade Allyl Alcohol USP Equivalent
High-purity allyl alcohol (≥99.5%) suitable for pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis, such as in glycerol derivatives. Falls under 2905.29.10.00 as a separate chemically defined unsaturated acyclic monohydric alcohol per Chapter 29 notes.
Stabilized Allyl Alcohol with Hydroquinone Inhibitor
Allyl alcohol stabilized with 0.1% hydroquinone to prevent polymerization during storage and transport. HTS 2905.29.10.00 applies as the stabilizer is necessary for preservation per Chapter Note (f), maintaining its status as chemically defined allyl alcohol.
Allyl Alcohol Aqueous Solution 70%
70% allyl alcohol in water solution, qualifying under Chapter Note (d) as a chemically defined compound dissolved in water. Classified in HTS 2905.29.10.00 rather than mixtures due to note provisions.
