Products classified under HTS 2905.49.20.00

Glyceryl Monooleate

Glyceryl monooleate is a monoester of glycerol with oleic acid (heading 2904), used as an emulsifier in food and cosmetics. It falls under HTS 2905.49.20.00 as a glycerol ester formed with an acyclic monocarboxylic acid from heading 2904, meeting chapter note requirements for classification in this subheading.

Glyceryl Monostearate

Glyceryl monostearate is the monoglycerol ester of stearic acid (heading 2904), widely used as a stabilizer in bakery and plastics. Classified under HTS 2905.49.20.00 for its status as a glycerol ester with a saturated acyclic acid from heading 2904.

Glyceryl Monopalmitate

Glyceryl monopalmitate, a monoester from glycerol and palmitic acid (heading 2904), serves as an emulsifier in pharmaceuticals and confectionery. It qualifies for HTS 2905.49.20.00 as a defined glycerol ester with an acyclic carboxylic acid.

Glyceryl Dioleate

Glyceryl dioleate is a diester of glycerol with two oleic acid molecules (heading 2904), used in lubricants and cosmetics. HTS 2905.49.20.00 covers it as a polyhydric alcohol ester specifically from heading 2904 acids.

Glyceryl Trilaurate

Glyceryl trilaurate, or trilauroin, is the triglyceride ester from glycerol and lauric acid (heading 2904), used in research and as a lipid standard. It fits HTS 2905.49.20.00 for complete esterification with acyclic acids from 2904.
