Industrial Cinnamic Acid Technical Grade from Japan
Technical grade cinnamic acid (95-98% purity) for large-scale industrial applications like resin production and polymer modification. Remains classified under HTS 2916.39.06.00 despite lower purity as it meets Chapter 29 definition of chemically defined compound. Cost-effective for bulk chemical processes.

Import Tips
• Specify impurity profile (benzaldehyde <0.5%, cinnamaldehyde <1%) to justify pure compound status
• Large bulk shipments require proper ventilation certification per IMDG Code (UN 2811)
• Technical Data Sheet must confirm minimum 95% assay to avoid 3824 mixture classification
