Tetraethylthiuram Disulfide (TETD)
Tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TETD) is a thiuram tetrasulfide derivative used as a vulcanization accelerator in the tire and rubber industries. Classified under HTS 2930.30.60.00 as 'other' thiuram mono-, di-, or tetrasulfides, it qualifies as an organo-sulfur compound with sulfur directly bonded to carbon. It is typically imported as a technical-grade powder meeting chemical purity standards.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified as other organo-sulfur compounds not specifically thiocarbamates
Broader organo-sulfur heading applies if the compound doesn't precisely match thiuram disulfide structure per subheading definitions.
If when formulated as a herbicide or pesticide active ingredient
Thiuram compounds used in pesticidal applications are directed to Chapter 38, goods specified in Note 1 to Chapter 38.
