Hexamethylenediamine Adipate Salt

Hexamethylenediamine adipate salt is a 1:1 salt formed from hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid, classified under HTS 2921.22.1000 because it is derived in whole or in part from adipic acid. This compound serves as a key intermediate in nylon 6,6 polymer production.

Alternative Classifications

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

2921.22.50.00Same rate: 41.5%

If not derived from adipic acid

Pure hexamethylenediamine or salts from other acids fall under the 'other' subheading without adipic acid specification.

3908.10.00.00Lower: 31.3% vs 41.5%

If polymerized into nylon salt

Polymerized forms like nylon 6,6 salt are classified as polyamide resins in Chapter 39 rather than amine compounds.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 41.5%

If in mixed chemical preparations

Solutions or mixtures with solvents/additives for specific uses move to Chapter 38 as chemical preparations.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide detailed chemical analysis certificates confirming adipic acid derivation to avoid reclassification

Ensure proper UN-approved packaging for corrosive amine salts to comply with DOT and IMDG regulations

Declare exact purity levels (typically >98%) as impurities may affect duty treatment under chapter notes
