Products classified under HTS 2917.12.50.00
Dibutyl Adipate
Dibutyl adipate is an ester of adipic acid formed by reacting adipic acid with butanol, classified under HTS 2917.12.5000 as 'other' esters of adipic acid. It is commonly used as a plasticizer in PVC formulations and as a solvent in cosmetics. This acyclic polycarboxylic acid ester fits Chapter 29 note (A) for ester classification with the parent acid.
Diisobutyl Adipate
Diisobutyl adipate, an adipic acid ester with isobutanol, is used in low-temperature plasticizers and emollients in personal care products. Classified under 2917.12.5000 as an 'other' ester of adipic acid per acyclic polycarboxylic acid heading. Meets Chapter 29 purity requirements for separate chemical compounds.
Dimethyl Adipate (DMA)
Dimethyl adipate is the methyl ester of adipic acid used as a solvent in paint strippers and as an intermediate in polymer production. Classified under 2917.12.5000 as other adipic acid esters per acyclic polycarboxylic acids. Chemically defined compound per Chapter 29 note (a).
Diethyl Adipate
Diethyl adipate serves as a flavoring agent in food products and fragrance fixative in perfumes. HTS 2917.12.5000 classification as other adipic acid ester follows Chapter 29 note (B) for ethyl esters. Excluded from food additive chapters by chemical definition priority.
Monoethyl Adipate
Monoethyl adipate is a half-ester of adipic acid used in pharmaceutical intermediates and polymer modifiers. Classified under HTS 2917.12.5000 as other adipic acid derivative per acyclic polycarboxylic acids. Single esterification maintains classification with parent acid.
Adipic Acid Mixed Esters
Mixed esters combining adipic acid with different alcohols (e.g., butyl/hexyl) used in specialty lubricants. HTS 2917.12.5000 as other adipic acid esters per Chapter 29 note (A) last-in-numerical-order rule. Chemically defined despite mixed alcohol components.
Cyclohexyl Adipate
Cyclohexyl adipate ester used in high-performance plasticizers requiring thermal stability. Classified HTS 2917.12.5000 as other acyclic adipic acid ester despite cyclic alcohol component. Parent acid structure determines acyclic classification.
2-Ethylhexyl Methyl Adipate
Asymmetric adipic acid diester blending properties of branched and linear esters for specialty coatings. HTS 2917.12.5000 classification follows Chapter 29 ester rules regardless of alcohol asymmetry. Used in radiation-curable formulations.
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) Adipate (DEHA)
DEHA is a widely used adipic acid diester serving as a primary plasticizer for PVC in applications requiring low-temperature flexibility. Falls under HTS 2917.12.5000 as 'other' adipic acid esters, being a chemically defined acyclic polycarboxylic acid derivative. Excluded from other chapters per note (A) ester classification rule.
