Products classified under HTS 2909.49.60.00
Diethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether (Butyl Carbitol)
Diethylene glycol monobutyl ether is a colorless liquid ether-alcohol used as a solvent in paints, inks, and cleaners. It falls under HTS 2909.49.60.00 as an 'other' ether-alcohol derivative, chemically defined with the structure featuring both ether and hydroxyl groups. This classification applies to its pure form for industrial solvent applications.
Triethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether
Triethylene glycol monomethyl ether (TGME) is an ether-alcohol solvent used in gas dehydration and hydraulic fluids. Classified under HTS 2909.49.60.00 as a chemically defined polyether-alcohol not specified elsewhere. Its structure contains multiple ether linkages and a terminal hydroxyl group.
Ethylene Glycol Monohexyl Ether
A higher alkyl ether-alcohol used in coatings and inks, featuring one ethylene glycol unit with hexyl ether chain. Falls under HTS 2909.49.60.00 as 'other' ether-alcohols not specifically named. Chemically defined with ether and alcohol functional groups per Chapter 29 notes.
Dipropylene Glycol Methyl Ether
Dipropylene glycol methyl ether (DPM) serves as a slow-evaporating solvent in water-based coatings. HTS 2909.49.60.00 covers this branched ether-alcohol as 'other' not elsewhere specified. Meets Chapter 29 criteria for chemically defined organic ether-alcohols.
Propylene Glycol Monophenyl Ether
Propylene glycol monophenyl ether functions as a coalescing aid in latex paints. Classified in HTS 2909.49.60.00 as an aromatic ether-alcohol not specifically provided for. Contains both ether linkage to phenyl and free hydroxyl group.
Tetraethylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether
Tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (Tetraglyme) used as a polar aprotic solvent in batteries and extractions. While technically a diether, classified under ether-alcohols broadly in HTS 2909.49.60.00 for glycol ether series. Chemically defined per Chapter notes.
1-Methoxy-2-Propanol Acetate
PMA (propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate) is an ester of ether-alcohol used in electronics coatings. Falls under HTS 2909.49.60.00 via ester classification rule staying with parent ether-alcohol. Chapter 29 note (A) governs cross-subchapter ester placement.
Butyl Glycol Ether (2-Butoxyethanol)
2-Butoxyethanol is the classic butyl ether-alcohol used in household cleaners and paints. HTS 2909.49.60.00 as 'other' ether-alcohol, chemically defined with formula C6H14O2. Widely recognized solvent meeting all Chapter 29 organic compound criteria.
Hexylene Glycol Monoether Derivative
Specialty ether-alcohol derived from hexylene glycol for cosmetic solvents. HTS 2909.49.60.00 covers unsaturated or branched ether-alcohols not specifically named. Chemically defined with documented ether-alcohol functional groups.
Polyethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether
Low molecular weight PEG monoethyl ether used in pharmaceutical formulations. Classified HTS 2909.49.60.00 as ether-alcohol; higher polymers go to Chapter 39. Chemically defined oligomer with n=3-6 ethylene oxide units.
3-Methoxy-3-Methyl-1-Butanol

Dipropylene Glycol Normal Propyl Ether
DPnP is a versatile solvent for inks, cleaners, and couplings agent. Classified HTS 2909.49.60.00 as branched ether-alcohol 'other'. Chemically defined mixture of propylene glycol propyl ethers.
Tripropylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether
High boiling ether-alcohol for defoamers and coalescents. HTS 2909.49.60.00 covers longer chain poly(propylene glycol) monoethers. Chemically defined per Chapter 29 organic compound definitions.
2-(2-Methoxyethoxy)Ethanol
Methoxyethoxyethanol (MEETH) or DEGME, used in textile dyeing assistants. HTS 2909.49.60.00 as diethylene glycol methyl ether-alcohol. Pure compound meeting all Chapter 29 applicability criteria.
