About esters; phosphoric, and their salts, including lactophosphates, their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives

HS code 2919 covers a diverse range of phosphoric esters and their derivatives, which are widely used in various industries. These compounds play a crucial role in numerous applications, from agricultural chemicals to pharmaceuticals and personal care products. As an important segment of the broader chemical industry, the production and trade of these esters contribute significantly to the global economy.

Production process

The production of phosphoric esters and their derivatives typically involves a multi-step chemical synthesis process. This often begins with the esterification of phosphoric acid or its salts with various alcohols, followed by further modifications such as halogenation, sulfonation, nitration, or nitrosation to create the desired derivatives. Advanced techniques like continuous flow chemistry and catalytic processes may be employed to optimize efficiency and product quality.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 2919 products include phosphoric acid, a range of alcohols (such as ethanol, propanol, or butanol), and various halogenating, sulfonating, nitrating, or nitrosating agents. Specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and purification systems, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor and technical expertise are necessary to ensure the safe and efficient production of these complex chemical compounds.

Production outputs

The outputs of HS code 2919 include a diverse array of phosphoric esters and their derivatives, which find applications in numerous industries. These products may be further consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 2920 (Esters of other inorganic acids of non-metals (excluding esters of hydrogen halides) and their salts; their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives), 2921 Amine-function compounds, and 3824 (Prepared 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).
