Products classified under HTS 3824.99.41
Tallow-Based Foundry Mold Release Agent
A mixture derived from animal tallow used as a release agent in foundry mold production to prevent sticking of sand molds to castings. It falls under HTS 3824.99.41 as a fatty substance of animal origin prepared for industrial use in metal casting processes. The product consists primarily of refined beef tallow blended with minor additives for stability.
Soybean Lecithin Industrial Emulsifier
A vegetable-derived fatty substance extracted from soybeans, used as an emulsifier in industrial coatings and adhesives. Classified under HTS 3824.99.41 due to its origin as a mixture of phospholipids from vegetable oils prepared for chemical industry applications. It functions by stabilizing oil-water mixtures in manufacturing processes.
Lanolin-Based Leather Processing Fat
A wool grease derivative (lanolin) used in leather tanning to lubricate and soften hides during processing. This animal-origin fatty mixture qualifies for HTS 3824.99.41 as a prepared substance for the chemical/tanning industries. It provides essential lubrication without altering the leather chemically.
Palm Kernel Stearin for Textile Finishing
A hard vegetable fat fraction from palm kernel oil used in textile finishing to provide softness and water repellency. Falls under HTS 3824.99.41 as a fatty substance mixture prepared for the textile chemical industry. The stearin is emulsified for even application during fabric processing.
Neatsfoot Oil Compound for Leather Care
A compounded mixture of neatsfoot oil (animal origin) with stabilizers for conditioning leather goods and machinery belts. Classified in HTS 3824.99.41 as a prepared fatty substance for chemical/industrial leather treatment applications. Provides deep penetration and preservation properties.
Coconut Fatty Acid Paste for Rubber Processing
A vegetable fatty acid mixture derived from coconut oil used as a processing aid in rubber compounding to improve flow. HTS 3824.99.41 covers this as mixtures of vegetable origin fatty substances for chemical/rubber industries. The paste form ensures uniform dispersion in tire manufacturing.
Beef Tallow Emulsion for Paper Coating
Water emulsion of rendered beef tallow used in paper manufacturing for release properties and water resistance. This animal fatty substance mixture qualifies under HTS 3824.99.41 for prepared chemical industry products. Applied during paper sizing to prevent sticking in printing presses.
Sunflower Oil Fatty Alcohol Blend
Mixture of fatty alcohols derived from sunflower seed oil for use in cosmetics formulation and industrial surfactants. HTS 3824.99.41 applies to such vegetable origin fatty substance preparations for chemical industries. Provides emolliency and thickening properties.
Shea Butter Fraction for Industrial Wax
Refined stearin fraction from shea butter used as a vegetable wax substitute in industrial polishes and coatings. Classified under HTS 3824.99.41 as mixtures of vegetable fatty substances prepared for chemical applications. High melting point provides hardness in wax formulations.
Lard Oil Compound for Metalworking
Compounded hog lard oil used as cutting fluid base in metal machining operations. This animal fatty mixture falls under HTS 3824.99.41 for prepared chemical products in metalworking industries. Provides lubrication and cooling during cutting processes.
