Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for aromatic nitriles or when blended with benzene derivatives
Aromatic cyclic structure shifts priority to 2926.90.30 before aliphatic malononitrile specification.
If as salts like monosodium malononitrile for specific synthesis
Organic salts follow the parent organic compound per Chapter 29 note 3(C)(1), but may require salt-specific verification.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit HPLC or GC assay reports proving ≥99% malononitrile content to avoid reclassification as 'other nitriles'
• Declare exact stabilizer content if present; Chapter 29 note (f) allows stabilizers but requires disclosure
• Use UN-approved 4H1 steel drums; improper packaging leads to customs holds under hazmat regulations

Malononitrile
Malononitrile (NC-CH2-CN) is a dicyano-substituted organic compound classified under HTS 2926.90.50.10 as a nitrile-function compound due to its two cyano groups directly attached to carbon. It is a colorless liquid used primarily as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis.
Malononitrile with 0.1% Stabilizer
Malononitrile containing minimal stabilizer (0.1%) for preservation during transport, explicitly permitted under Chapter 29 note (f) and classified as HTS 2926.90.50.10. The added stabilizer does not alter its primary identity as the named dicyano compound.
Distilled Malononitrile ACS Reagent
ACS-grade distilled malononitrile meeting American Chemical Society purity standards for laboratory use, classified under HTS 2926.90.50.10 as the specific nitrile-function compound. Its high purity excludes it from mixture or preparation headings.
