Products classified under HTS 2909.30.09.00
Pentabromodiphenyl Oxide (PeBDO)
Pentabromodiphenyl oxide is a brominated aromatic ether used primarily as a flame retardant additive in plastics and textiles. It falls under HTS 2909.30.0900 as a specifically enumerated halogenated aromatic ether derivative. This chemical compound contains five bromine atoms attached to diphenyl oxide, providing fire-resistant properties.
Bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane (BTBPE)
Bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane is a highly brominated aromatic ether specifically listed under HTS 2909.30.0900. This pure chemical compound serves as an additive flame retardant in engineering plastics like polyamides and polyesters. Its six bromine atoms provide excellent thermal stability and fire resistance.
Tetradecabromodiphenoxybenzene (TDDPB)
Tetradecabromodiphenoxybenzene is an extremely brominated aromatic ether explicitly named in HTS 2909.30.0900. With 14 bromine atoms, this compound provides superior flame retardancy for high-performance applications in electronics and construction materials. It qualifies as a separate chemically defined organic compound per Chapter 29 notes.
Decabromodiphenyl Ether (DeBDE) Technical Grade
Technical grade Decabromodiphenyl Ether contains primarily the fully brominated decaBDE with minor impurities, qualifying as a chemically defined compound under Chapter 29 note (a). Although phased out in many regions, legacy stocks import under HTS 2909.30.0900 as a halogenated aromatic ether. Used historically in plastics, textiles, and adhesives.
Pentabromodiphenyl Oxide Flake Form 98% Pure
High-purity pentabromodiphenyl oxide in flake form meets Chapter 29 requirements for separate chemically defined compounds. This physical form facilitates handling in flame retardant compounding operations for styrenic polymers. Specifically enumerated under HTS 2909.30.0900.
Bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane Powder USP Grade
USP-grade Bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane powder provides pharmaceutical purity levels for specialty flame retardant applications. As a specifically named aromatic ether halide, it imports under HTS 2909.30.0900 per Chapter 29 legal notes. The powder form ensures uniform dispersion in polymer matrices.
Tetradecabromodiphenoxybenzene Granular Form
Granular tetradecabromodiphenoxybenzene offers excellent flow properties for automated metering in high-volume plastic compounding. This ultra-high brominated ether qualifies under HTS 2909.30.0900 as a named chemically pure compound. Provides Class 1 flame retardancy in engineering thermoplastics.
PeBDO/PBT Masterbatch Concentrate 50% Loading
Although primarily PeBDO, this 50% loading masterbatch in PBT resin technically remains classified by the pure chemical compound per Chapter 29 ester/salt rules by analogy. However, customs may challenge this as a mixture. Used for injection molding applications requiring UL94 V-0 rating.
Saytex CP-2000 Brominated Ether Flame Retardant
Saytex CP-2000 is the commercial trade name for tetradecabromodiphenoxybenzene, specifically enumerated under HTS 2909.30.0900. This product provides high thermal stability for demanding wire and cable applications. Meets stringent smoke density requirements per ASTM standards.
BEH-TEBP Brominated Ether Blend
BEH-TEBP contains bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane as principal component with proprietary synergists, qualifying under HTS 2909.30.0900 when purity exceeds Chapter 29 thresholds. Optimized for ABS and HIPS flame retardancy. Provides excellent light stability.
FF-1 Pentabromodiphenyl Oxide Dispersion
FF-1 dispersion contains 70% pentabromodiphenyl oxide in solvent carrier, qualifying under Chapter 29 note (e) for transport safety. The dispersion prevents dust explosion hazards during handling. Specifically named compound maintains HTS 2909.30.0900 classification.
Great Lakes DE-83R Decabromodiphenyl Ether
DE-83R is the former commercial grade decabromodiphenyl ether from Great Lakes Chemical, specifically classifiable under HTS 2909.30.0900. Legacy production for exempted applications continues under strict controls. High bromine content (82-83%).
Albemarle Saytex 120 Flame Retardant
Saytex 120 is commercial bis(tribromophenoxy)ethane from Albemarle, explicitly covered by HTS 2909.30.0900 naming convention. Provides synergistic flame retardancy when combined with antimony trioxide. Excellent electrical properties.
TBBPA Alternative Brominated Ether
Developed as TBBPA replacement, this novel pentabromodiphenyl ether derivative imports under HTS 2909.30.0900. Offers similar reactivity for epoxy resin curing while reducing hydroxyl functionality. Maintains high limiting oxygen index.
Brominated Ether Stabilized with Antioxidant
This pentabromodiphenyl oxide contains <0.1% antioxidant stabilizer per Chapter 29 note (f) for preservation. The minimal addition maintains HTS 2909.30.0900 classification as chemically defined compound. Prevents oxidation during high-temperature processing.
