Oleic Acid for Textile Processing
Oleic acid specifically formulated for textile scouring and dyeing processes, acting as a lubricant and emulsifier. Classified under HTS 3823.12.00.00 as pure oleic acid for industrial use in manufacturing. Its application in textiles doesn't change the chemical classification.
Tallow-Derived Oleic Acid for Soap Making
Oleic acid extracted from beef tallow specifically for saponification in soap production. Classified under HTS 3823.12.00.00 as it meets the oleic acid chemical specification from industrial fat refining. Source material doesn't change heading if purity qualifies.
Palm Kernel Oleic Acid Industrial
Oleic acid fraction separated from palm kernel oil refining for industrial cleaners and emulsifiers. HTS 3823.12.00.00 applies as monocarboxylic fatty acid meeting oleic specification from vegetable sources. Vegetable origin doesn't affect classification.
Industrial Grade Oleic Acid 80%
Oleic acid with 80% purity derived from animal or vegetable fats, used in industrial applications such as metalworking fluids and lubricants. It falls under HTS 3823.12.00.00 as it is specifically classified as oleic acid, a monocarboxylic fatty acid produced industrially. This product is not suitable for food use due to its refinement process and impurities.
Red Oil Oleic Acid Technical Grade
Reddish-brown oleic acid (red oil) obtained from tallow or grease refining, containing about 70% oleic acid for use in soap manufacturing and emulsifiers. Classified under HTS 3823.12.00.00 as industrial monocarboxylic fatty acid specifically identified as oleic acid. Its color and impurities distinguish it from higher purity grades.
Pharma Grade Oleic Acid USP
High-purity oleic acid meeting USP standards for pharmaceutical applications like tablet coatings and as an excipient in soft gels. Falls under HTS 3823.12.00.00 because it is chemically oleic acid, regardless of end-use purity, distinguished from food or cosmetic grades by documentation. Industrial classification prevails over pharma-specific headings.
