m-Chloroperoxybenzoic Acid (mCPBA) 75% Technical Grade
m-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA) is a peroxyacid used primarily as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis for epoxidation reactions and Baeyer-Villiger oxidations. This 75% technical grade product, typically stabilized with water and a wetting agent, falls under HTS 2916.39.04.00 as it is specifically listed as an aromatic peroxyacid derivative.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as pure peroxyacid without specific naming
Other aromatic peroxyacids fall under the broader 'other' category rather than the specific listing.
If supplied as stabilized solution exceeding transport solvent limits
Solutions where solvent renders it suitable for specific use shift to mixtures of chemicals.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure proper hazardous materials documentation (UN 3102) and temperature-controlled shipping below 25°C to maintain stability
• Include Certificate of Analysis verifying mCPBA content and peracid stabilizer levels for customs chemical classification
• Avoid common pitfalls like improper labeling as oxidizer (Class 5.1) which can delay clearance
