Methyl Acrylate Monomer
Pure methyl acrylate (CH2=CHCOOCH3) is a colorless liquid unsaturated acrylic acid ester used primarily as a monomer in polymerization reactions. It falls under HTS 2916.12.50.20 as a chemically defined ester of acrylic acid, specifically methyl acrylate, per Chapter 29 notes for separate organic compounds. This classification applies to the undiluted monomer form without additives that would change its chemical nature.
Methyl Acrylate Technical Grade
Technical grade methyl acrylate contains minor impurities but remains a separate chemically defined organic compound under Chapter 29 note (a). Classified specifically under 2916.12.50.20 as the methyl ester of acrylic acid, it's used in industrial coatings and adhesives production. Impurities do not alter its primary chemical identity as methyl acrylate.
Methyl Acrylate with Hydroquinone Inhibitor
Methyl acrylate stabilized with hydroquinone (HQ) at low levels (<100 ppm) to prevent polymerization during transport, per Chapter 29 note (f) for stabilizers necessary for preservation. This remains classified under HTS 2916.12.50.20 as the primary compound is still chemically defined methyl acrylate. Used in textile and paper coatings.
Glacial Methyl Acrylate
High-purity, undiluted methyl acrylate monomer without water or solvents, termed 'glacial' in chemical trade. It precisely matches HTS 2916.12.50.20 as the methyl ester of acrylic acid, a separate chemically defined compound for manufacturing superabsorbent polymers. Chapter notes confirm classification over earlier headings.
Methyl Acrylate for Superabsorbent Polymers
Industrial-grade methyl acrylate designated for SAP production in diapers and hygiene products. As a pure acrylic acid methyl ester, it falls under 2916.12.50.20 per the last-in-numerical-order rule among possible Chapter 29 headings. Remains classified as the chemical compound regardless of labeled end-use.
MEHQ-Stabilized Methyl Acrylate
Methyl acrylate with 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ) stabilizer at 25-100 ppm for transport safety, allowed under Chapter 29 note (f). Retains HTS 2916.12.50.20 classification as the stabilizer is solely for preservation, not specific use. Common in adhesive and textile industries.
