Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2915.39.90.00Lower: 28.7% vs 40.5%

If purity below 95% or contains isomers

Lower purity products or mixtures of isomers fall under the residual 'other' category within the same ester heading.

2840Lower: 13.7% vs 40.5%

If labeled as rare earth extractant

Specialized end-use as organometallic extractant may trigger classification under inorganic coordination compounds.

3822Lower: 10% vs 40.5%

If imported as certified reference material

Diagnostic or laboratory reagents in measured doses classify under Chapter 38 per Chapter 29 exclusions.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide lot analysis certificates showing GC purity >99% to prevent classification as 'other esters' with potentially different duties

Include DEA exemption letters if importing to Schedule I research facilities; maintain chain-of-custody documentation

Label with GHS pictograms (Flame, Exclamation Mark) and specific concentration limits per OSHA HazCom standards
