Products classified under HTS 3806.90.00.00
Gum Rosin
Gum rosin is a natural resin obtained from the oleoresin of pine trees, primarily used in adhesives, printing inks, and soaps. It falls under HTS 3806.90.00.00 as a rosin and resin acid derived from tree exudates, classified as 'other' within this heading.
Tall Oil Rosin
Tall oil rosin is extracted from crude tall oil during wood pulping processes, used in paper sizing and adhesives. Although part of heading 3806, 'other' covers miscellaneous rosin types; note specific tall oil subheading exists but this captures variants.
Rosin Oil
Rosin oil is obtained by distillation of rosin, used as a solvent in varnishes and paints. It qualifies under HTS 3806.90.00.00 as 'rosin oils' within the 'other' category of this heading.
Pentaerythritol Ester of Rosin
This ester is produced by reacting rosin acids with pentaerythritol, used in adhesives and coatings for improved stability. Classified under 3806.90.00.00 as a derivative of rosin and resin acids.
Disproportionated Rosin
Disproportionated rosin undergoes heat treatment to stabilize abietic acid, used in solder fluxes and inks. It remains under HTS 3806.90.00.00 as a processed derivative of rosin acids.
Rosin Modified Phenolic Resin
This resin combines rosin with phenolic compounds for tackifying adhesives and printing inks. Classified in 3806.90.00.00 when rosin remains principal component per Chapter 38 notes.
Wood Rosin
Extracted from pine stumps via solvent process, wood rosin serves in high-quality varnishes and pharmaceuticals. Falls under HTS 3806.90.00.00 as other rosin from wood sources.
Rosin Spirits
Volatile fraction from rosin distillation, used as paint thinner and solvent. Specifically named in heading 3806, covered by 'other' subheading 3806.90.00.00.
Methyl Ester of Rosin
Rosin acids esterified with methanol for plasticizers and fragrances. Remains under 3806.90.00.00 as rosin derivative not elsewhere specified.
Fortified Rosin
Rosin enhanced with polymerized rosin for improved stability in adhesives. Classified as 3806.90.00.00 derivative maintaining rosin acid characteristics.
