Products classified under HTS 2916.14.20.10
Ethyl Methacrylate Monomer
Pure ethyl methacrylate (CH2=C(CH3)COOCH2CH3) is a colorless liquid unsaturated acyclic monocarboxylic acid ester used primarily as a monomer in polymerization reactions. It falls under HTS 2916.14.2010 as a specific ester of methacrylic acid, chemically defined per Chapter 29 note (a). Stabilizers may be added for safety and transport without changing classification.
Stabilized Ethyl Methacrylate 99%
Industrial-grade ethyl methacrylate containing 100 ppm hydroquinone monomethyl ether (MEHQ) stabilizer, meeting Chapter 29 note (f) for preservation during transport. Classified under HTS 2916.14.2010 as the primary product remains chemically defined ethyl methacrylate ester. Used in UV-curable coatings and dental resins.
Ethyl Methacrylate for Dental Applications
High-purity ethyl methacrylate (99.5%) packaged in 25kg nitrogen-blanketed drums for dental composite production. Remains under HTS 2916.14.2010 as chemically defined methacrylic acid ester per Chapter 29 scope, despite end-use packaging. Polymerizes into biocompatible resins for fillings.
Technical Grade Ethyl Methacrylate
Ethyl methacrylate with 98% minimum assay, balance ethyl acetate/water, supplied in ISO tank containers for adhesive manufacturing. Qualifies under HTS 2916.14.2010 as principal product meets Chapter 29 chemically defined compound criteria. Common in anaerobic adhesives.
Polymerization-Grade Ethyl Methacrylate
Ultra-low inhibitor ethyl methacrylate (<10 ppm MEHQ) for emulsion polymerization producing acrylic latex paints. HTS 2916.14.2010 classification maintained as pure methacrylic ester per Chapter 29 note (a), with minimal additives allowed by note (f). Key raw material for architectural coatings.
UV-Curable Ethyl Methacrylate
Ethyl methacrylate pre-treated for radiation curing applications in 3D printing resins. Still classified HTS 2916.14.2010 as the base chemically defined ester remains unchanged by UV sensitizers within Chapter 29 note (g) limits. Enables rapid prototyping.
Ethyl Methacrylate with Anti-Dusting Agent
Fine droplet ethyl methacrylate emulsion with 0.1% silica anti-dusting agent for safe handling in powder coating production. Permissible under HTS 2916.14.2010 per Chapter 29 note (g) as identification/safety additive not rendering specific use. Converts to acrylic powder coatings.
Pharma-Grade Ethyl Methacrylate
Ethyl methacrylate meeting USP/EP monographs for pharmaceutical polymer synthesis (e.g., Eudragit coatings). HTS 2916.14.2010 applies as chemically defined organic compound, with pharma packaging not affecting chemical classification. Used for enteric drug coatings.
