Furfuryl Alcohol 98% Technical Grade
Furfuryl alcohol is a heterocyclic compound containing a furan ring with a hydroxymethyl group, produced from furfural derived from agricultural byproducts like corncobs. It falls under HTS 2932.13.00.00 as a chemically defined unfused furan ring compound with oxygen hetero-atom. Primarily used as a solvent and intermediate in resin production.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If blended with >5% stabilizers or solvents for transport
Blends exceeding simple stabilization limits become chemical preparations of heading 3824 rather than pure compounds.
If chemically modified into sugar ethers or esters
Derivatives like furfuryl sugar acetals fall under heading 2940 for modified sugars, later in numerical order.
If declared primarily as cyclic alcohol without emphasizing furan structure
Alcohol function might suggest heading 2906, but furan ring specificity prevails under chapter notes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity certificate (min 98%) and ensure SDS meets GHS standards for hazardous material declaration
• Include origin certificate as furfuryl alcohol production varies by agricultural feedstock availability
• Avoid misclassification as mixtures; pure furfuryl alcohol requires separate chemical analysis documentation
