Chemical products, mixtures and preparations; containing goods specified in Subheading Note 3 to this Chapter; containing oxirane (ethylene oxide)

Heading 3824Prepared binders for foundry moulds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries (including those consisting of mixtures of natural products), not elsewhere specified or included

Chapter 38: Miscellaneous chemical products

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 382481 when importing or exporting chemical products that contain oxirane, such as specific mixtures used in industrial applications. For example, a shipment of a chemical binder for foundry molds that includes ethylene oxide would fall under this code.

This code is part of the broader Chapter 38, which covers various chemical products not classified elsewhere. It specifically narrows down to prepared binders and mixtures containing oxirane, distinguishing it from other chemical preparations like those that do not contain oxirane.

When comparing HS-6 382481 to HS-6 382480, the latter covers similar chemical products but does not specifically include those containing oxirane. Therefore, ensure you classify your products correctly based on their chemical composition and intended use.

If you're dealing with chemical mixtures that include ethylene oxide, it's crucial to confirm that they meet the criteria specified in this subheading. This ensures compliance with import regulations and proper tariff classification.
