Linear Alkylbenzene LAB-99
LAB-99 is a highly purified mixed linear alkylbenzene with a linear carbon chain length primarily C10-C13, used as the primary feedstock for manufacturing linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) detergents. It falls under HTS 3817.00.10.00 as mixed linear alkylbenzenes, distinguished from branched types by its straight-chain alkyl groups attached to the benzene ring.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If aromatic hydrocarbons with purity exceeding 95% by weight
Highly pure alkylbenzenes may classify under Chapter 29 as separate aromatic chemicals rather than mixed preparations of heading 3817.
If heavily diluted with solvents or additives
Mixed alkylbenzenes formulated with other substances for specific applications fall under chemical preparations in 3824 rather than pure mixed alkylbenzenes.
If containing mainly petroleum oils
Alkylbenzenes derived from petroleum fractions with significant oil content classify under petroleum oils per Chapter 27 exclusions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify purity levels (>99%) and C10-C13 chain distribution via certificate of analysis to confirm classification; ensure SDS includes exact composition to avoid reclassification as unspecified mixtures; check for environmental compliance with TSCA registration for chemical imports
