Products classified under HTS 2918.19.60.00
DL-Malic Acid
DL-Malic acid is a racemic mixture of L- and D-malic acid, a dicarboxylic acid with alcohol function (HOOC-CH(OH)-CH2-COOH). It falls under HTS 2918.19.60.00 as malic acid, a carboxylic acid with alcohol function but without other oxygen functions, chemically defined per Chapter 29 note (a).
L-Malic Acid Food Grade
L-Malic acid, the naturally occurring enantiomer, used as acidulant in beverages and confectionery. Classified under HTS 2918.19.60.00 as pure malic acid meeting Chapter 29 requirements for separate chemically defined organic compounds with carboxylic acid and alcohol functions.
Technical Grade Malic Acid
Technical grade DL-malic acid used in chemical synthesis, cleaning formulations, and industrial applications. HTS 2918.19.60.00 covers this chemically defined dicarboxylic acid with hydroxy group, regardless of end use, per Chapter 29 scope.
Malic Acid 50% Aqueous Solution
50% malic acid dissolved in water for safe transport and handling in food/pharma applications. Allowed under HTS 2918.19.60.00 per Chapter 29 note (d) as malic acid product dissolved in water, provided it's a normal transport method.
Pharmaceutical Grade L-Malic Acid USP
USP-grade L-malic acid meeting pharmacopeia standards for drug formulations and buffering. Classifies under HTS 2918.19.60.00 as pure, chemically defined malic acid enantiomer with required carboxylic/alcohol functions.
