Aldehydes; halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives of products of heading no. 2912

HS v2017 Code: 2913

About aldehydes; halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives of products of heading no. 2912

HS code 2913 covers a diverse range of chemical compounds known as aldehydes, which are organic compounds containing a formyl group (-CHO). These compounds play a crucial role in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and agricultural chemicals. The production and trade of these aldehydes are essential for the global economy, as they serve as key intermediates and building blocks for a wide range of downstream products.

Production process

The production of aldehydes under HS code 2913 typically involves the oxidation of alcohols or the reduction of carboxylic acids. Common methods include catalytic hydrogenation, oxidation of alkenes, and the Rosenmund reduction. These processes are often carried out in controlled environments, with careful temperature and pressure management to ensure the desired product quality and yield.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of aldehydes under HS code 2913 include alcohols, alkenes, and carboxylic acids as raw materials. Additionally, various catalysts, solvents, and specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, are necessary for the efficient and safe production of these chemicals.

Production outputs

The aldehydes produced under HS code 2913 are widely used as intermediates in the synthesis of a variety of other chemical compounds, including 2912 Aldehydes, even those with other oxygen function; cyclic polymers of aldehydes; paraformaldehyde, 2914 Ketones and quinones, whether or not with other oxygen function, and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, and 2915 Saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids and their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids; their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives. These aldehydes are essential building blocks for the production of pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and agricultural chemicals, among other applications.
