Naphthalic Anhydride Technical Grade Powder

Technical grade naphthalic anhydride powder (95-98% purity) with minimal impurities for general chemical synthesis. Classified in HTS 2917.39.0800 as it remains a separate chemically defined compound under Chapter 29, not a mixture requiring Chapter 38 classification. Standard anti-caking agent permitted per note (f).

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2917.39Same rate: 10%

If aromatic polycarboxylic acids, not anhydrides

The free diacid form classifies separately from cyclic anhydrides in the 'other' category.

3824.99Higher: 15% vs 10%

If contains added anti-dusting agents exceeding Chapter 29 limits

Preparations with functional additives beyond identification/preservation purposes fall to chemical mixtures.

2907.29.90.00Higher: 30.5% vs 10%

If monocarboxylic rather than polycarboxylic

Single carboxyl group compounds classify earlier in Chapter 29 subchapter structure.

Import Tips & Compliance

Disclose impurity levels (<2% naphthalic acid) in documentation; high impurities risk reclassification as preparations

Use fiber drums or poly-lined bags per industry standard; improper packaging leads to customs holds

Confirm CAS 81-84-5 on all docs; mismatches cause delays at entry

Naphthalic Anhydride 98% Pure

Naphthalic anhydride is a white to pale yellow crystalline powder used primarily as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes, pigments, and fluorescent brighteners. This specific grade at 98% purity falls under HTS 2917.39.0800 as it is the pure aromatic polycarboxylic anhydride derived from naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic acid. It meets Chapter 29 requirements for separate chemically defined organic compounds without disqualifying additions.

Industrial Grade Naphthalic Anhydride Flakes

Naphthalic anhydride in flake form for bulk industrial use in pigment manufacturing and polymer modification. Classified under HTS 2917.39.0800 as the pure aromatic anhydride without disqualifying impurities or additions. The flaked physical form facilitates handling but does not affect chemical classification under Chapter 29.

High Purity Naphthalic Anhydride for Dye Synthesis

Ultra-high purity naphthalic anhydride (>99%) specifically packaged for use in perylene dye manufacturing. Falls squarely under HTS 2917.39.0800 as a separate chemically defined aromatic polycarboxylic anhydride per Chapter 29 note (a). No added substances render it suitable for specific use beyond its chemical identity.

Reagent Grade Naphthalic Anhydride ACS

ACS reagent grade naphthalic anhydride meeting American Chemical Society specifications for laboratory use. HTS 2917.39.0800 applies as pure aromatic polycarboxylic anhydride, even for lab quantities, since Chapter 29 covers all purity levels of chemically defined compounds. Lab packaging does not trigger retail exclusions.
