HS v2017 Code: 290519

About alcohols; saturated monohydric, n.e.c. in item no. 2905.1

HS code 290519 covers a diverse range of saturated monohydric alcohols that are not classified elsewhere under the broader 2905.1 category. These alcohols play a vital role in various industries, serving as essential raw materials, solvents, and intermediates in the production of a wide array of chemical products. Their versatility and importance make them a crucial component of the global chemical industry and international trade.

Production process

The production of saturated monohydric alcohols under HS code 290519 typically involves the hydration of alkenes or the reduction of aldehydes and ketones. Common methods include catalytic hydrogenation, hydrolysis of alkyl halides, and the Grignard reaction. The specific production techniques may vary depending on the target alcohol and the desired purity levels.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of alcohols under HS code 290519 include alkenes, aldehydes, ketones, and other organic precursors, as well as catalysts, solvents, and energy sources. Specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The alcohols classified under HS code 290519 are widely used as intermediates in the production of a diverse range of chemical products, including 290511 Methanol, 290512 (Propan-1-ol (Propyl alcohol) and Propan-2-ol (Isopropyl alcohol)), 290513 (Butan-1-ol (n-Butyl alcohol)), and other higher alcohols. These alcohols find applications in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paints, coatings, and various industrial chemicals.
